I've always been a big fan of having my swap file on another physical HDD for performance. I'm going to move over to RAID and using the mirror function. Does it make any sense to have the swapfile pointed to a seperate physical drive yet? Maybe it's best not to when running RAID or maybe can't be done using RAID?

Anyone help?

Thanks!!
