RAID does not necessarily preclude keeping tables and indexes on separate disks (or sets of disks). I too am interested in any comments from people on this topic. We are thinking of upgrading our SPARC 1000 to include a SPARC storage array with more drives for RAID, and I would be interested in hearing about people's experiences with this configuration....
