For a Windows 7 desktop computer with 16gb DDR3 1600mhz ram and a 2.5ghz i5 CPU using 30gb SSD's for C and E and a 7200rpm SATA for D drive.

I don't use a Paging File on C or D drive and have a SSD I use for it on E drive where its set to 20-21 gb. Should be more than enough. That drive has no other use. What I'm unclear on is if that is effective when C drive is running programs. Do I sacrifice any performance having the Paging File on another drive and will that operate properly for programs running on other drives or does each drive need its own Paging File?
