you can have a virtual mem running on another ssd , that is can not be a problem, and its working fine, just follow that guide what NeuroticFish posted already :

Your mining software , windows and all another software on that pc will be working just fine.

why the hell dont you try it, we have to try it for you or what? ...
What windows you have? I assume it's 7 or 10. I made a google search: windows page file on separate disk
One of the results shows the images what to set for Win7: https://superuser.com/questions/237813/how-can-i-move-the-page-file-to-another-physical-disk-location
There's a similar result for Win10 too if that's your OS: http://winaero.com/blog/how-to-move-page-file-in-windows-10-to-another-disk/
I hope that this is what you needed. Good luck.

I found those too, but just wanted to post in this forum, maybe someone has experience with it, if miner gets confused or something it being on a different disk.
Will try surely. Thanks for the help
How many gpus you have because if you have just 2 or 3 you don't even need to adjust the VM leave it as it is i tried it with 2 gpus the miner works fine without adjusting virtual memory unless you have more than 3 cards you sure need to go for a larger hdd or ssd
You can get a cheap 80gb hdd used or something , it doesn't differ what type the drive is.

I know it would work but will it work if I add a secondary hdd and not buy a bigger ssd
Yeah, no problems at all.
Virtual memory is around from way more than SSD and it always worked.
I've mined for quite some time with old HDD with 32Gb of virtual memory and I didn't notice any difference between SSD or HDD

Yeah i think with a bigger ssd or HDD it will be work!
Hi, sorry for bothering you good people, I have a problem.. Recently made the switch from ethOS to Windows, due to low hashrates on ethOS. Problem is I have a 32gb SSD and windows doesn't let me (ofc) allocate 16gb virtual memory as there's not enough space.. Can i just put another HDD and then allocate it there ? (Will the miner work, DAG and stuff I don't have knowledge of) or must I cash out a bigger SSD
