    Disabling Virtual Memory in Win7... bad idea?

    I just built a new system with 6gb of DDR3 and 2x 32gb SSD in RAID0. I disabled virtual memory in win7 x64 (i.e. set page file to none) because I want to optimize the limited free space on my RAID array. I plan on getting a large HDD to store random stuff on later, but for now, I need to...

    Does unpartitioned space on SSD RAID0 totally and permanantly counter TRIM issues?

    Am I misunderstanding or misreading all of the posts on this forum that are saying otherwise? :(

    Does unpartitioned space on SSD RAID0 totally and permanantly counter TRIM issues?

    I guess the topic pretty much says it all. Should I expect to see any write time degradation over time if I leave ~25% of my SSD's in RAID0 unpartitioned? Or does the unpartitioned space 100% effectively counter the non-TRIM speed loss issues? Also, I leave 25% of the total RAID0 array...

    SSD Raid 0 -or- 2x separate SSD for OS & storage? Which is faster?

    SSD Raid 0 -or- 2x separate SSD for OS & storage? Which is faster?

    OK, so it's not better to have the OS separate from the game software on 2 different drives? I mean would TRIM on 2 separate drives actually close the gap on the performance increase from RAID'ing the 2 SSD's?? (btw, didn't Intel just release TRIM for RAID about a month ago? just curious)

    SSD Raid 0 -or- 2x separate SSD for OS & storage? Which is faster?

    I am building a new gaming computer. I do NOT need much storage space at all (I think 2x 16gb SSD may even cut it). I was planning on having Win7 & 1-2 games on SSD only, with the rest of my crap on a larger standard HDD. My question is - What would give me better performance - having...
