Is there any performance advantage in having a given amount of paging
space split across two disks?

We just bought an additional third party disk and need to increase
paging space. This disk is probably a bit slower than the IBM disk,
but I suppose I could specify an optimum location on the disk for the
extra paging space. (Incidentally, where is this optimum location on a
disk?). 

Both disks belong to the same physical volume.
