Does it make any sense to partition an extremly large table by tablespace in a SAN RAID 5 environment or just put the partitions in one BIGFILE tablespace? I can see using tablespaces to put the files on different spindles, but in a SAN is this necessary?

Anyone had any problem putting a very large (50 G) partition table into one BIGFILE tablespace?
