memory size for disk management

In an effort to justify a SAN, I would like to quantify the amount of memory
the system is dedicating to disk IO. It is a 220R running Solaris 8 and
Oracle. Our database memory allocation is already greater than the 2G that is
installed and I'm hoping to make the case that something like a EMC FC4700
would extend the usable life of the server(s) attached since their load would
no longer include managing disks. Any methods or suggestions are welcome.
