SoftPerfect RAM Disk

SoftPerfect RAM Disk is a high-performance RAM disk application that lets you have a disk on your computer entirely stored in the memory. As the memory is much FASTER than physical hard disks, it makes sense to store temporary data on a fast in-memory disk to achieve a higher performance. Whatever your job is, read on to find out what a RAM disk can offer you. The program creates a virtual disk residing in the computer RAM accessible in Windows Explorer and other applications, allowing you to store any temporary information on this disk. Furthermore, Windows can be configured to use the disk for temporary files, so the system and most applications will use the fast in-memory disk for temporary data. As Windows and third-party applications often Create a large number of temporary files for a short time only, using a RAM disk will extend your hard disk`s life by sparing it from excessive reading and writing. Five reasons to use a RAM disk 1. Higher PC Performance. Using a fast in-memory disk for temporary data boosts PC performance up, provided you have got a sufficient amount of RAM. 2. Reduced file system fragmentation. The file system on your disks will be Far less fragmented as temporary files are never written to the disk. 3. Reduced wear-out of the physical disk. As temporarily files are not written to the disk, there will be fewer read/write cycles, which is especially important for Solid State Drives (SSD) installed in some laptops. 4. Less junk on the hard disk. Often software applications create temporary files that remain undeleted although no longer needed. 5. Less noise and heat from the hard disk. The system will use the hard disk less intensively as it would storing temporary files on the disk.
