    Page file and indexing on an SSD, just how bad is it?

    So today I received my first decent SSD (I won't count any of the OCZs I've had - baaaad experiences there ), an Intel 320 series 120GB. Just how bad is it to have the page file on the SSD? Considering the five year warranty, is it worth the risk? If it isn't likely to kill the drive within the next three years it isn't an issue as I'll upgrade before then anyway. And indexing service? Surely when doing a search it's better to just go through the index quickly than essentially re-index the entire drive?

    Thanks guys

    Edit: Most of these tweaks were to prolong SSDs based on the buggy JMicron controllers, weren't they? In other words a fresh install with prefetch/superfetch disabled should be fine?
