[QUOTE="porky996t, post: 793439, member: 75318"] Hmmm... a very interesting discussion.... I have tried RAMDisk previously, but bought a SSD and put the OS and Timeshift folder on this. Now, I occasionally get stutter on HD - certainly nothing major, or anything to make it unwatchable, and this stutter coincides with the HD light flickering very brightly. So, much activity going on, and this has now got me thinking about RAM Drives again - I have just checked on Amazon and the prices of RAM are much lower than the last time I looked - I can get 8Gb for £90 - I have spent more on drinks on a night out! :eek: I am using Win7 32bit - I have 4Gb installed and can go upto 16Gb with my current motherboard. Say I put another 8Gb RAM in there, will RAMDisk show this and allow it to be partitioned and used as a Timeshift buffer, or is anything above 4Gb just not visible or usable at all, and not only by the OS, but by any applications running on it too. If this was the limitation, I presume I would have to go onto Win7 x64 ? Many thanks, M. [/QUOTE]
