Pagefile...

So I was thinking about the pagefile/swapfile.

What is the best way to maximise performance on a drive.
Especially on your drive booting windows?

I was thinking as I have 4gb Ram, on removing the pagefile altogether.

I’m running 2 drives is Raid 0 for performance, but just wondering on how I can get that little bit extra.

I have a few HDD's just sitting around, so could stick another one in, and make it just the page file or something.

Thought on this?

Ummm ok...
So basically the best thing would be to set it at a specific size.

I thought I read somewhere or in a PC Format or something that the best would be to get rid of it all together.
And if its better to do that and get more Ram, an extra 4gb aint too expensive.
So that's an option...

True true...

Ok, well I will take your advice and set it to a specific size, and defrag it...

Thanks mate

Thanks Fire Wizard...

I will read that doc and report back.
I mainly only use my Desktop for gaming, so wanted to pull out as much performance as possible...

I have a work laptop for anything thing work related
