I wanted to play safe in case I later upgrade the RAM to 32 GiB and,
additionally, I later enable the hibernate functionality. Since I have
a 1 TB HDD, I can spare a 32 GiB (approximately 34 GB) for swapping.
For increased swapping performance, the swapping space on a rotational
drive should be contiguous and located at the start of the drive, right?
Kindest regards,
