Later versions of 4D optimized the index rebuilding by caching the records and 
doing all of the indexes on table at a time. If there is enough cache (memory) 
the second through 8 index would be much much quicker in that it wouldn’t need 
to reload the records in the table.

Log story short, since you can’t get an SSD, maybe increase the server memory 
and cache size for reindexing.
