I rather keep the (permanent) page file on one physical hard drive and Windows on another. It's a setup I've used all the way from Win 3.1. I don't care what MS says. All the versions of Windows I've used with that setup have been very speedy and stable up to this point. I'm going to stick with the same setup in Vista.
As for defrag. I do temporarily disable the page file while the defrag process is ongoing and then re-enable it again once defrag is done.
I also have 2 gb of ram. So, one page file should be sufficient.
