Running Windirstat, I discovered that pagefile.sys is on my E: drive instead of my C: drive. Is this normal? My gut instinct says no... It shows up on Windirstat but I can't find it physically on my drive. Anyone?
Why is my pagefile.sys on my other drive?

If your 'E' drive is a partition of your 'C' drive then there will be no performance gain as the read/write head will be flying all over the place but if your 'E' drive is another physical hard drive then it will be a gain. Windows will be able to handle multiple I/O requests more quickly.
Basically if the 'E' drive is another HD then leave it but if you are not happy with it, it will cause no problem changing it to wherever takes your fancy.

My C: drive is my 32GB SSD and my E: drive is my 120GB WD HDD.
