Ram Disk Creator

[krissel]

Way back I remember a lot of people upset that X did not have the capability of creating a RAM disk. Don't know how good this app is but it supposedly does the trick.

Couple other interesting apps on that site to check out.

The link answered my question:

What's a Ram Disk?
Refers to RAM that has been configured to simulate a disk drive. You can access files on a RAM disk as you would access files on a real disk. RAM disks, however, are approximately a thousand times faster than hard disk drives. They are particularly useful, therefore, for applications that require frequent disk accesses.


I guess I don't use applications like that.

Good heavens . . . I haven't even thought about a ram disk since getting a Mac that had HD bigger than 8 gigs! I do seem to recall that they were more trouble than theyr seemed to me to be worth their "establishment" and "maintenance".

But then, I didn't have TeeEss to keep me on the straight and narrow.
