My apologies, I should've been much more explicit... This is for a specific
tablespace, with VERY static data...

Yeah...I'm thinking 80/20 Read/Write for Controller cache, but again, this
is not the puzzle

Case: one tablespace (regardless of how many datafiles) for data, one tbs
for indexes. 9 hard drives to deal with, with RAID 5 as level of choice.
Should DATA reside on 6-drive volume and indexes on separate 3-drive volume,
or should these two tbs live on same physical R5 volume?
