Back then I was using Windows 7 and adjusted my paging file. At first it was on my SSD, but later I transferred it to an HDD. My setup includes 16GB of RAM and 16384 MB of virtual memory across all drives. Is this amount sufficient for Windows 10? Should I let the system choose the optimal size automatically? It suggests a maximum of about 2936 MB.

You have three drives available. You're keeping it on the standard SSD and wondering if the suggested capacity is acceptable.

Adjust to the standard setting. You don’t require 16GB of virtual memory, right?

Do you share similar traits as OCD? Consider using around 2/3 GB for the page file.
