Out of curiosity, how large is your DW and what is workload today?  Do
you use parallel query?

I ask because SSD is not really that beneficial for a DW, especially
when it comes to price/performance over spinning rust (HDDs).  SSD is
(mostly) about IOPS, not MB/s throughput which is where most DW are
sized inadequately.
