QUESTION POSED ON: 20 July 2007
Hi Brian. I have a 300GB hard drive installed on my server, in which I'm planning on installing an Oracle E-Business Suite application. What would be the best design for me to implement on the disk drive in order for the application to run smoothly.

EXPERT RESPONSE
If all you have is one disk drive, then you only have one option -- place all of Oracle's files on that device. Ideally, you should have multiple drives in order to spread out I/O. Ideally, you will want to separate your Undo from your Redo. And your most-accessed segments would be on other disk devices. With only one disk device, you may run into I/O contention.
