"To answer your question the ME4012 can tier data by moving blocks (not the entire VMDK but rather small blocks of data) across the multiple tiers, in this instance the SSD drives would serve as the performance tier for active data and the SAS drives for the colder data. As the home directory blocks are accessed, they will be tiered up accordingly."
