Fariborz: I don't know of any way to purge the data repository. Given the interdependence of the tables, I would suspect it would be a pretty difficult process to do well. The question I have is what the advantage would be in moving data to slower drives? It would seem that the utilization of the data would be really hampered, both by the lower quality hardware, plus the huge increase in the complexity of writing any queries and the performance hit more complex queries would entail. My guess is that buying bigger faster drives for your SAN would be a much cheaper solution.
