Hello,
All my drives appears also as removable. I saw nothing in the BIOS to change that, I will re-check.

After I updated Windows 10 Pro 64-bit to the October 2018 version 1809 update. I can't set custom size or no paging file in virtual memory properties in drive C:. By after set custom size or
no paging file and restart computer. Has system properties pop up on start up. And pagefile.sys in drive C: still automatically manage paging file size.

2019-01-03T03:37:46+00:00 1803 allows page file to be created on a removable drive, 1805 doesn't. If Windows sees your drive being removable whether it is actually removable or not, you will have problem. It doesn't make sense for Windows to think a system drive is removable though.

2019-01-03T02:44:56+00:00 I just checked my safely remove hardware option.
All my drives are ejectable.
If they can be ejected, why do they have cache options, and caching by default?
Is this the result of sata hotplug support?
NOT ONLY are my drives ejectable - but I have a highpoint professional pcie server SAS/Sata rocketraid controller for my array, and I'm prompted to safely eject the CONTROLLER ITSELF.
This isn't bios or my motherboard, and it's not a per drive setting.
Why would windows allow me to safely eject my pcie controller card?

2019-01-02T19:00:28+00:00 I had mine set as Fixed disk in Windows, but it was not until I also set it as the same in BIOS then I was able to create page file on that drive. For users who don't have access to that option in BIOS, it's up to the mercy of the installer to decide if the disk is fixed or not. Only Microsoft can fix this then.
