Windows 7 will automatically allocate hard drive space to the page file & hibernation file equivalent to the amount of installed RAM. In your case, page file=8gigs hiberfile=8gigs By disabling or reducing the allocation of these two files you can quickly recover 16 gigs of your SSD. :)

Very nice job on the thread, well done TIKITRADER

Thank you for the informative reply. That is a serious amount of ssd space to regain when many people do not purchase large space ssd's due to the cost of them. This is really great stuff to know to get the most out of our ssd's.
Thanks for the nice feedback :)

Tiki,

Is your system overclocked?

Not at this time. I am installing programs and running everything normal to make sure everything is fine.
I think it will be real neat to get some overclocking going and post how well it goes !
It will be real fun at some point to take this thread to oc and have some experienced oc folks share their advice also.

Ok. Good thinking to burn in first before redlining it. :D

Thanks for a great thread.
 
follow up question:


I followed this

to help reduce writes to the ssd while using FF.

I have a Norton pop up to high disk usage for FF.
Appreciate very much any advice. Anyone know why ?


( not keeping norton. installed with the os )

My 2600k box overclocked to 4428 with a single click to go from stock to TURBO on the WS motherboard. I have not even tried it at "EXTREME". In TURBO it has never skipped a beat.

Sidenote: Dug out the soldering iron this morning and removed a couple capacitors to replace in older (10 years) LCD screen. Radio Shack did not have the right voltage caps so i bought HIGHER voltage ones, should work because a higher voltage cap can handle the smaller voltage to the cap. A cap of LOWER voltage rating can NOT handle a HIGHER voltage input to the cap. Wish me luck, ha..

:eek:

Will order proper caps from internet in case the same type screen goes out. I hope this works, i like those 2 older screens from viewsonic, great picture, and "SQUARE" at that, HA
