#173328 - But why partition Responding to: ???'s previous message |

A well-known method for improving performance on a Windows-based computer is to move the paging file (pagefile.sys) from its usual location on drive C to its own separate partition on a separate physical drive. Indeed - but why partition a single drive? If you really don't trust subfolders, get separate drives - they're cheap! The only real reason I can see for partitioning is when you need multiple operating systems and/or multiple file systems. |
