Can someone tell me if it's possible to create 'virtual memory' using hard drive space, which I have an M.2 PCIe SSD installed?

I was thinking I remembered reading about it some years ago, but thinking about it I seem to recall the option when inserting a thumb drive.

That's exactly what virtual memory is --- Windows sets it up & creates a so-called 'paging file' automatically during OS installation.

But don't regard it as a cost-free substitute for the real stuff --- real RAM is much faster.
