Running Windows 8.1 64bit
8.00 GB of RAM
Intel Core i7-3630QM @ 2.40 GHz
Recently I bought an SSD (Samsung 840 Pro 512gb), and did a bit of research but I'm having trouble finding clarification on the subject of having the Pagefile on the SSD or off. On one hand I find that it's constantly written to and can degrade the SSDs life, however in other places I find people saying that Windows has gotten better at pagefile management and it's fine to keep it on the SSD as it's not written to as often.
I've been running with my Pagefile on the ssd since I installed it 4 days ago but would rather not cause damage or too much wear on the SSD.
So is it okay for me to leave my pagefile on the SSD or should I move it off immediately?
Also what about swapfile.sys, do I need to move this as well, and if so, how?
