Page file on a Different Drive?

BEn_2600+ · 2 Jun 2006 at 00:02

Hi, I recently found out an old drive which i put in my PC to test it, but lazy as i am ive just left it in there. The drive is quite old now (not sure of its exact age) and its only 2gb. I run Hd tach on the drive and it come up with 9.8mb/s :eek:

Would there be any point in putting my pagefile on the drive or would it be better leaving it on my Primary 120gb hdd?

If its no good for a pagefile any other uses for the drive that maybe gain performance? Sorry if this is a noob question Hard Drives arn't my strong point

Thanks in advance

Hi, No lol im not really going to destroy it, i think i might use it like you say as a download box. I'm not going to use it as backup its rather old now dont know how reliable it will be. But my downloads dont have to be all that secure can always get them again

Thanks for the idea Messiah Khan
