Hi,

I am searching for a MS dokument that describes a best
practice to handle the pagefile on a Windows 2003 Server.
I have two RAID 1 partition and I want to know where is
the best place for the pagefile.
My system is:
- W2K3 Std Server
- RAM 1 GB
- 4*HD, 2+ RAID1 (one RAID1 for system C:\; one RAID1 for
AD logs D:\)
- 2*CPU 3 GHz

If you set Initial and Max of 1.5GB on both C: and D:,
Windows will use the least busy for each page write and your
C: drive pagefile is big enought to capture a memory dump.
