The only reasons to create a separate ASP are:

1. to completely isolate disk workloads. Perhaps you have to store large objects in the IFS that are accessed infrequently. You can create an ASP with the 280GB or larger drives, while maintaining the system ASP for your regular storage needs.

2. Create a separate ASP for journal receivers so it the main ASP has multiple disk failures and you have to recover from tape, you have your journal receivers isolated and can apply the changes since the backup.

Last thing you want is to have too few arms in your system asp.
