That would seem fair enough if the disk only had a single platter in it, but with multiple platters who knows where anything will be?
Do drives start on one platter, and once full move to the next, or randomly write where ever they like? -----Original Message----- From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 29 January 2009 15:23 To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: Speaking of page file Or on the system drive partition (if you have mutliple). The pagefile will be a lot closer to the inner tracks of the disc, where read/writes are faster because of the closer sector proximity. If you are moving it back to the system partition after it being somewhere else, be sure to use a defragger that can optimize its location back to the beginning of the disc. Or something like that. Someone a bit more tech can feel free to rip me a new one if I said that wrong. -- ME2 On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 10:01 AM, Ames Matthew B <[email protected]> wrote: > Better stick it on a separate disk :-) > > -----Original Message----- > From: Micheal Espinola Jr [mailto:[email protected]] > Sent: 29 January 2009 14:57 > To: NT System Admin Issues > Subject: Re: Speaking of page file > > But not recommended. > > -- > ME2 > > > > On Thu, Jan 29, 2009 at 9:30 AM, David Lum <[email protected]> wrote: >> Wow, brilliant!
