  1. Hard Drive & SSD Support
    I have a weird problem happening. I am building a Gaming PC and when I connected the 2.5" SSD with Windows 10 on it, it boots just fine.

    Sadly I don't have those things, but theoretically if I did use the SSD for OS systems and the HDD for installing games, what would be the optimal page filing sizes for both? I know that the HDD should have a higher page filing, but by how much exactly if you customized it?
