Hi All,
Thank for taking the time to read this.
Basics on my system are;
Vista64
Quad Core
Nvidia 280
8gig 800 RAM
So am pretty sure I know the answer but I wanted to get some other views.
My C drive is a 36gig 10Krpm drive. I started to run out of room so I bought a 1TB 7200K rpm drive. A friend told me a while ago that if you set up an additional paging file on a different drive the OS would react quicker. I created a partition of 18gigs on the new TB drive and made it only for the paging file. I also hid the drive so I would not put anything else on the partition. I did it and I see no change.
So, my question is this; Am I not seeing a change because the paging file partition is at 7200K and not 10K? Or am I not seeing a change because of the other system specs?
Was it just a waste of time doing this and should I just delete that paging file partition?
Again, thanks for reading this
