Hello, thank you for replying.

Disk space is not critical per se, I am inquiring about pagefile size
etc., SQL is doing well at managing itself for us, because someone in
another NG suggested I should eliminate or reduce the pagefile, it's
currently 4 GB when the memory has been increased to 4GB.

Thanks, Tom
