[QUOTE="damaster, post: 344886, member: 60795"] Turns out my problem was indeed the Vista power management. I thought I had ensured it was set to never turn off the hard disks but it was actually set to turn off hard disks after 20 minutes. Once I changed that setting, my Samsung 1TB SpinPoint stopped exhibiting this problem. I've since moved my pagefile to that secondary disk and my system has never been faster. [/QUOTE]
