Seconday Hard drive to Speed it Up

I was wondering whether or not installing ArmA on a second drive, seperate from the OS, would help performance.

(Oh, and is 2gigs of RAM going to make a whopping diffference)

more ram did little difference but a second HD (raptor)with only Arma on it and pagefile to the other drive ,with the OS, kept things a bit smoother in game.

Ive got a 7900gs with a C2D @2.9ghz and run the game at 1600 X 1200 resolution all settings low/normal. The amazing part is I can run the game at 3000-5000 viewdistance and still keep frames above 60 in Evolution. I think the HD has helped with map loading so VD doesnt hit me at all.

with 2gb of ram I used to have pagefile turned off and the game was smooth for me. Now with 1gb and 2gb pagefile the game feels sluggish...
