assume I have 6 disks on my server. Oracle suggest that we should have control file and redo log files on different disks b/c of I/O and rollback on another seperate disk. From this advise, this is how I place my files. I would put three control files and redo logfiles on disk 1,2,3 and I will put rollback on disk 4 so I have only two disk which is disk 5 and 6 to place my datafiles, but if I put all of my datafiles and index on these two disk, there is an issue with Oracle too b/c the activity is not spread around so that these two disks will have to perform the extra work.


any advise for the above for how I should handle the datafile efficiently ???

Thanks
