New Hard Drive coming today, can I have alternating Pagefiles?

[cdlink14]

Currently I have a 320GB hard disk, and my 1TB is due to arrive today before 1PM.

Is it possible for me to use the whole 320GB for XP, and the 1TB drive for Windows 7, with the pagefiles stored on the alternate drive for extra performance?

So for example, XP is installed on Drive 1 (C:\) with it's Pagefile on drive 2 (D:\). While Windows 7 is installed on drive 2 (D:\) with it's pagefile on drive 1 (C:\).

NOTE: This is pretty much copied directly from my thread in the PC building, nobody answered there for a few days so I decided to make a new thread. Also I'm not sure if this does belong in the Hardware and Software root, or if it belongs in the Technical Support section.

Yes and Yes, but you'll have to re-assign boot order manually.

I've never used sata drive much before, do you assign the boot order via jumper pins/Cable select still?

No, its assigned in the BIOS, jumper are no longer required for SATA drives.

That's a good relief then.
