i have this 6GB drive, currently formatted to about 4 or so, and i was wondering how i could make it a swap drive. i know that a swap drive is used the same way RAM is, and i'd love to have more space to move around...

i do have partition magic 8, but am not sure how to go about doing this...also, if its not the greatest idea, that would be something to know as well.

thanks in advanced

Just set it to use the drive as a swapfile. The setting is somewhere in Control Panel -> System -> Hardware
