ram is cheap, get 12gb ram and disable windows pagefile. the storage medium you are using should not store random stuff and be activated when not asked to.

nice little article. actually mine is set to 40k/40k. ........ OP, you should look at what it says the minimum and maximum are and just double the highest for min/max and set it, forget about it.

one of those cache drives ( the 32's from sandisc )..gutted/formatted.... I've used those for page file and disabled on HD's. that and storage is all they're useful for. don't work right as cache drives and when they do they're annoying to deal with. JUNK!
