    SSD + Traditional HDD and Windows Swap File

    I have a quick question... Normally this would be an easy question as I would be using 2 traditional HDDs... but as I getting ready to build a new machine... I'm not sure how I should plan this. I would like to buy a SSD and use it as my C drive and use a regular SATA drive as my storage...
