Yes, it's possible to move your device virtual memory to another drive, and here are the steps to perform this task on Windows 10.
On Windows 10, virtual memory (paging file) is a feature that stores unused, modified pages in RAM (random-access memory) to the hard drive allowing to prioritize more physical memory for more frequent processes and apps. Using this process helps to improve performance and reduces the chances of the system, locking up if it runs out of memory.
