What product is the flash accelerator and what do you mean by 200+? Ceph uses 4MB objects by default and usually, while a separate WAL/DB partition brings a performance gain, the benefit might not be as big as expected and you might be better off using the disks intended for WAL/DB as OSDs for a separate pool.
