news 28 Posted August 20, 2014 Dear editor, We have just posted *The RAM Disk Guide Rev. 2.1*. Quote : The RAM disk has been around since the 1980s, but it has never been popular due to the high cost of computer memory. It is now making a comeback, partly because RAM is now cheap and plentiful and partly because solid state drives (SSDs) are fast replacing hard disk drives as the storage medium of choice. SSDs are not only much faster than hard disk drives, they are silent and virtually impervious to vibration and shock. The downside though is their limited lifespan. That's where the RAM disk comes in - it allows the user to reduce wear and tear on the SSD by shifting some of the work to it. There are, of course, pros and cons to the RAM disk, and this guide will guide you through it all. On top of that, we will teach you how to make full use of your RAM disk. *In this major update, we added a new section called "What File System Should You Use?".* Link : *http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=816* <http://www.techarp.com/showarticle.aspx?artno=816> Icon : *http://www.techarp.com/article/RAMDisk_Guide/icon_big.png* <http://www.techarp.com/article/RAMDisk_Guide/icon_big.png> We hope you will post this news on your website.
