Windows Vista has the capability to turn your USB into RAM, but Gavotte Ramdisk can turn your RAM to a virtual hardisk! This virtual hardisk can read/write faster than a “real” hardisk!
Do you have a lot of RAM in your PC? Do you know that it can actually convert to a virtual hardisk so that it can be accessed faster than a “real”hardisk? Why i said this virtual hardisk is faster than your “real” hardisk? This is because RAM has a faster read/write speed than a hardisk. By converting part of your RAM to a virtual hardisk, you can boost up your system performance.
Ramdisk can be used to store frequently accessed but less important data, such as temporary internet files, P2P client, and compression utility. Before you use Ramdisk, you must aware that all data stored inside will be deleted once you reboot your PC, as the RAM will be refreshed once power off. So, Ramdisk is not suitable to store important data.
Gavotte Ramdisk is a free software, which is compatible with Windows Vista and support all windows filesystem, including FAT16, FAT32, and NTFS. You can download Gavotte Ramdisk here. I will describe how to create a virtual hardisk.
