I have 32 gigs of memory and would like to have a 16 gig ramdisk that I can customize for my different working environments. One ramdisk file might be a game, another ramdisk file might be a modeling app, etc. Although I can launch primo ramdisk, select the file, mount it , exit primo ramdisk--I wou...

tnx. I appreciate the time you took to explain the tip of the iceberg. it is a murky subject.

please forgive this naive question but i need a clear understanding of the difference between these two pieces of software. Since they both use ram to store data that would otherwise be written to disk, are they not the same? I guess the main difference is that the ramdisk is actually saved to the H...

tnx. i appreciate the depth of your reply --the truth is never simple.

computer is i7 w 16 gig ram, 256 gig ssd, 2 internal hds windows 7 pro, fancycache 0.8 beta pc mostly used for video editing from my reading it seems a good configuration for the C: drive is 16kb block size, 2 gig L1 cache size, algorithm LFU-R, Cache strategy Read/write Enable defer write on, laten...

but in the fancycache prefs, isnt there a place where you select the hard drive? is that 1)where fancy cache draws storage to be used as cache? Or is that 2)the target that fancycache intercepts read/write requests to? If the case is #1, then you should always select a ramdisk. (That's the best thin...

I know what a ram disk is. I put my temp folders there, etc. Does fancy cache use ramdisks? How do you tell fancy cache to use a ramdisk? Without a ramdisk, where does fancy cache put its cache? The diagram on the ho,e page makes it look like ram talks to fancy cache. But the data flowing into fancy...

As I understand fancy cache, it uses ram as an intermediary to store frequently used pieces of data, instead of allowing direct writes to the hard disk (or ssd). right? so, how does it know what to put into ram? and what to write to the disk (or ssd)? for example, if i want my browser caches to be k...
