Solaris Partitions for an Oracle Database server

I am getting ready to build some new database servers. It will be Oracle
8.1.7 on Solaris 8.

I was wondering if I could get some feedback on advantages and
disadvantages of the following two scenarios. One is to put one slice on
each drive:

Disk 1: /u01
Disk2: /u02
Disk3: /u03

the other is to put multiple slices on each drive:

Disk 1: /u01
              /u02
              /u03

Disk 2: /u04
              /u05
              /u06

Disk 3: /u07
              /u08
              /u09

All input is appreciated.

Thanks
