If you never move ANYthing else to Flash, move the TSM DB there. As someone else mentioned, it is like a religious experience. Our expirations went from 3 hours to 10 minutes.

We have our DB on 15K RPM SAS disks in 3x 4-disk RAID-10 sets. The logs we keep on RAID-1 collocated with the OS, since it's pretty low load and all sequential I/O.
