Page Files, Partitions, and Fragments

A quick setup:

Windows 2000 Server on a Dell PowerEgde 2600 – Xeon 2.8GHz, 2GB RAM, ~34GB of Hard Disks, RAIDed.

Whoever set it up, decided to put the OS onto an 8GB partition. What the fuck?
We’re using 2 out of 8 drive bays!

On top of that, why would you dedicate 1/4 of the OS drive to Virtual Memory and not crate any on the “Data Drive”?
Did you not realize that as the drive fills up, defragmentation becomes impossible?
I have cleaned my C: so that I am only using 68% of the disk, but due to your stupid Virtual Memory taking up so much gorram disk space, it can’t effectively run, because there aren’t enough large open and sequential sectors in the disk.

Take a look-see:

Look! Drive C: says it has 32% Free! You’d never know it by looking at the graph…
Yeah. Keep in mind that those aren’t scaled properly. The top graph is the OS disk totalling ~8GB, while the bottom graph is the data disk only _using_ ~8GB.

Also, that display is after I added 2GB of Virtual Memory to the data drive.

That’s right kids, in order to reduce the amount of Virtual Memory Win32 uses, you have to reboot to have it take effect.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid.
