- temp & users aren't used much if at all

#1 disks mirrored only
db1 os, software, archived logs
db2 indexes, system, online redo logs
db3 data, rbs, temp, users

#2 db1 mirrored, db2 is 4 disks striped and mirrored
db1 os, software, archived logs
db2 data, indexes, system, rbs, online redo logs, temp
