Actually I was thinking exactly that. Have a big area off the system drive and moving the pagefile there, then defragging the systemdrive, then putting the pagefile back.

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!
