Hi,
Had to pass on this nugget. If you own a SSD (i've recently bought two OCZ Agility Drives(now in raid 0!)) the you know that space is limited and wear and tear should be avoided. You've already moved your temp folders and pagefile to a common HDD, along with your IE cache and Firefox profile. There is one big thing you can do that will improve your windows fun: moving your desktop to the HDD!
It's really simple too.
1. Create a folder on your hdd drive (eg D:\mcloughj\) and open an explorer window in the folder
2. Click the start orb and then click your username (at the top of the right hand side of the start menu)
3. Hold down shift and left click the 'desktop' icon and drag it onto the folder created in 1. You it should say 'move to new folder'. Release the mouse button.
4. copy all the files you want on your desktop into the 'd:\mcloughj\desktop' folder
5. Enjoy the fruits of a full desktop without the annoying shortcuts and other guff.
Cheers!
