Definitely use a different array for the TempDB. We do that. I'll have to ask around about the SAN replication, though. It's definitely a good thing to consider ommitting from the SAN replication.

Then in the SAN replication software settings, don't replicate that array. Keep up the good work, son, and some day you'll be in magazines too. Maybe even with your shirt buttoned.
