When I added my first big hard disk everything went fine. We I added the
second, I had no control over the swap space. After checking, I found
that the disk format in the 2.x version had a request for swap space
size, and the 3.0 doesn't seem to. Perhaps it would "confuse the user".
I have no idea what's in the 3.5 version, I'm trying to decide if I
should upgrade or buy hardware.
