A single Pagefile is adequate, assuming you have 256 Megs or greater
physical memory. Placing it on a 2nd drive (Non-XP) has some small
benefits if the 2nd drive's operating parameters equal the one that has
XP installed on it (Access time, Rotational speed, etc.). If you choose
to put it on your 2nd drive, you'll need to disable the System Dump
option in System, Advanced, Startup & Recovery options, as that
requires the pagefile resident on the XP drive/partition.
