What logs exist on an Exchange Hub Server that should be moved off the C:\ drive?

Question

I'm trying to move any logs, queues, etc off the default C:\ drive, but am having trouble locating all the various settings.

This gets tougher when you consider diagnostic logging, and everything else.

Is there a comprehensive list of settings that need to be changed to move all "data" off the C:\ drive and onto a secondary drive?

are you moving them on to seperate spindles for performance reasons? How many drives are you moving to?
It's on VMWare and I'm moving them because I believe it is a best practice to separate OS and data that may grow.
AFAIK there is no best practice to simply seperate the OS from the application other than for performance reasons. As there is a related question here (serverfault.com/questions/20600/…) I've added more explanations there
If you have a heavy-usage server you might want to consider moving Event Log to a separate location. support.microsoft.com/kb/315417
