[QUOTE="BillyTheFish, post: 801693, member: 82282"] Just to throw another bit of Ramdisk software into the mix, according to this: [url=http://www.raymond.cc/blog/archives/2009/12/08/12-ram-disk-software-benchmarked-for-fastest-read-and-write-speed/]12 RAM Disk Software Benchmarked for Fastest Read and Write Speed | Raymond.CC Blog[/url] not all Ramdisk software is created equal and some is faster than others. I haven't tried it (and the article is a couple of years old and so things may have changed) but the fastest one on the list looks pretty good. It's (sort of) nagware so the current evaluation version expires in January 2012 but you can simply install the next evaluation version then and continue to use it for free, or pay the creator $10 to have a copy that doesn't expire: [url=http://members.fortunecity.com/ramdisk/RAMDisk/ramdiskent.htm]RAMDisk for Windows[/url] It's got 64 bit and 32 bit versions Anyway, it looks interesting, seems to be fast and has a lot of GUI configurable options. It even has an option to automatically load an image into the ramdisk when the driver starts (although I can't see why I would want this for MePo unless I was trying to run MePo out of the Ramdisk). I'm just waiting for another couple of sticks of RAM to arrive and then I'll give it a whirl. Has anyone figured out the best TimeShifting settings for a 8GB Ramdisk? [/QUOTE]
