Yeah, your not gonna get around your OS settings.I honestly don't think it matters much, as long as you have enough room and it is defragmented regularly, which is true of your HD. Looking at the task manager usage will tell you how much swapping you are doing, but Only CPU and RAM will really = speed.In that order. It depends on what size and complexity you are rendering. SWAP disk is never going to amt to any real performance, unless you really don't have enough space.

No need to think outside the box....
