Where should my page file go?

Bobmunkhouse · 23 Jul 2006 at 13:23

My new Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 320GB is coming on Tuesday which I’m going to use a s a windows and games drive I will be using my old 120GB drive as a downloads and backup drive. The question is should I set my page file on the old drive as I have heard that having it on a separate drive to your game data is faster?

Any help would be great thanks

I've got mine set like that. Not really sure just how much faster it is, but it does at least mean that the system can access the pagefile drive and any files on the Windows drive at the same time, without any performance loss.
