I learned some time ago you can improve system performance by placing the paging file (virtual memory) on a different drive than your system drive, not just another partition, but on a different drive.
So here is my question: My primary drive is ATA133 (C). If I add an older drive (ATA33) to the same controller (D) will it impact the speed of the primary drive?
Adding the drive to the second controller isn't an option as this is a dual boot system, drives E & F are used by that system.
Thanks, Bill
