Suggestion for 27 GB RAM for timeshift (1 Viewer)

[RicoHTPC]

As the headline says I am asking for a suggestion concerning the RAM disk size.
I'd like to use 27 GB and the table in the mp wiki ends with 8.
Anyone knowing the setting or maybe the correct calculation for me to figure out?

Regards,

Rico

I use dataram and there are versions going all the way up to 64G

@breese
I think he is not looking for Software, but some hind how to set timeshift in TV-Server for 27GB.

Edit: How many clients will be used at the same time?

 

[breese]

The ram drive should have a Drive assigned to it in Windows
I use R: and label it Ramdrive
TV Server asks for Directory to use, point it to the RamDrive or sub-directory with in the Ramdrive.

If you have software that need to know what size you want the Ramdrive to be like Dataram than
27G would be 28311522
1024 X 1024 = 1048576 = 1G
1048576 X 27 = 28311522 = 27G

Maybe I'm missunderstanding but I think he means this calculation for 27GB of RamDisk.

I'm sorry I can't help with calculation, but I don't understand how the Overhead is beeing calculated and if big or small filesize is the way to go.

I meant it as radical understood it.
Trying to figure out the right numbers for a 27gb setup.

How many TV clients do you have?

 

[RicoHTPC]

Two for the moment but does that matter?
As I underdstand this one client using timeshift would get the full size as two would get one half each and so on...
Anyway...
It doesn't have to be exactly 27gb but anywhere near this (I've got 32gb in total minus 4 for windows).

If you have maximum 3 clients, you may use 18 x 512MB = 9 GB / clients

Will try - thanks.
