Windows 7 and extra 12 GB upon install
Hi folks,
Tried to search for my problem here but couldn't find anything so here I am.
I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit a couple of months ago on a 64GB SSD. During the first step of the installation, Windows 7 recommended to use extra 12GB (or so) for creating an extra partition to ensure stability of the system. True, half of the SSD space was taken when installation finished successfully. Any idea why this is and do I really need it? SSDs are small and space is running out quickly.
Thanks.
Edit... while I'm at the drive space issue.. Any idea if I really need pagefile ? I have 12 GBram.. pagefile takes another extra 10 GB constantly.
