This works – but not for long. Flash drives have a “certain number of writes” on their usage before they start to fail. It’s a finite number. It’s in the millions, but you get there fast using it as a swap drive.

Dont’ believe me? Read about flash/key drives.

What Dr. Anonymous’s said here is to change the swap/paging file to be located on ur flash drive. There’s an element of risk involved here.. make sure u dont pull out the drive when operational or ur comp’ll crash at worst or u’ll lose data at the very minimum..
