He probably only needs more buffers, because (again probably) SMF is only busy accepting and buffering the flood of records and does not have time for closing older datasets, nor for writing buffers, in which case faster dasd will not help. Sufficient buffers to store records until the flood ends, will make SMF return to its normal work, such as writing records to dasd.
