Remove last snapshot?

I have a recommendation that striping has little effect because "the server I/Os are random and read / writes occur in small increments (4-6Kb I/Os)." This was an ADSM and not a TSM recomendation. Personally I hate striping as it's so hard to manage the disks when you want to move stuff around.
