That was the case with Win9x/ME. With NT-based systems such as 2000, XP, 2003, the swap file is called pagefile.sys and there can be one per disk partition.

There is an article on optimising XP's virtual memory performance at http://www.microsoft.com/WindowsXP/e...s/03june16.asp, which includes having multiple pagefiles on multiple hard disks (though not for the reason I mentioned above).
