Yes.

Go to Performance Optimization but click the Advanced tab there, and you should be able to run the optimization there. I have the same drive (well a 120GB) and am on Win 10 and the option in the Advanced tab is not greyed out or anything.

Thanks, managed to run it on my EVO but not my normal 840 OS drive as there is no option for that one.

I am still not convinced I have anything solved on the OS drive as the magician results are still way too low on IOPS.

Magician 4.9.6 is now available.

1GB is fine.

No it isn't. This guy's problems with GTA5 crashing were a direct result of samsung magician locking his pagefile to 1GB.

I've done everything suggested, updated my samsung magician and random write IOPS is still down on both drives.

It's getting incredibly frustrating.

In his case, allowing the system to use more virtual memory is a temporary stopgap, but the real problem is the lack of RAM.
