Marcus Eriksson commented on CASSANDRA-2749:
--------------------------------------------

btw, yes, i did include the data files in the patch on purpose, they need to be in subdirs for some of the unit tests to work

> Currently Cassandra supports multiple data directories but no way to control what sstables are placed where. Particularly for systems with mixed SSDs and rotational disks, it would be nice to pin frequently accessed columnfamilies to the SSDs.
> Postgresql does this with tablespaces (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.0/static/manage-ag-tablespaces.html) but we should probably avoid using that name because of confusing similarity to "keyspaces."
