Best UltraSCSI hard drive for $200-$350
If you get as high as 19MB with normal usage, perhaps 30MB is a good size. The statement to use would be something like: SWAPPATH=N: 2048 40960 (That's mine -- I set it to 40MB initially on my 20MB machine because I tend to exceed 30MB of swap here rather frequently). Change the drive letter, warning threshold,

Excesive hard drive usage for the virtual memory
On the drive I've got the ArMaTuReS distribution loaded (about 17Mb, according to 'count'), plus my library (1.7 Mb), and my work-in-progress programming directory (about 9Mb). Anyway, this little lot didn't ought to require half my drive to store it! The large file allocation unit may well be bigger.

My perfmon is showing very excessive disk usage. sp_who2 is showing the AutoShrink command running with status of 'Background'. Nothing of interest is showing up in Profiler.

Excessive hard disk activity - please help!
The hard-drive certainly shouldn't slow you down too much, but you should check that DMA is enabled for it. You may need an activation program if DMA can't be enabled from Windows, though, so check out their Web site. If your swapfile usage is excessive, you will see a loss of performance.

Excessive Disk Usage Mailing
After about a day and a half to 2 days (even with no usage), we begin experiencing excessive disk I/O for 1-2 min, then silence for 20-30 seconds and then lots of disk I/O again on one of our machines. Obviously, this degrades performance tremendously. This occurs on a WARP Connect machine with NetBios over TCP/IP,

Bulk Insert vs OpenRowset w/ Text Driver
You cannot rely on regular housekeeping with such a small hard drive. You may find it helpful to know exactly how much of your pagefile is being used. Use page file monitor to observe what is the peak usage. Start it to run immediately after start-up and look at the log at the end of the session.

However, this morning I checked my disk usage and it has almost doubled in the last month. This doubling is with a benchmark after my install.

I suspect that you are right and that I need not worry about excessive disk usage by running a stored procedure every 10 seconds for the rest of time that each time uses a temp table.

Accidental excessive disk use via trn
On my 130Mb IDE drive, creating a new directory uses 14K of disk space - not as bad as the 26K someone else reported on a SCSI disk. I think some formatting software lets you specify this in some way; I remember the software for either Acorn ST506 or Oak SCSI drives asks you for the large file allocation unit (this
