Performance Monitor.
Where do you get the value of 30 million from?

I would start by profiling your server to see which operation yields the high IO.

30 million reads from a database server is common.
If you ONLY have 30 million reads from the server during a week, the database is not very used.

Then you need to get faster new disk so that reads and writes are separated in different disk.
