Flash storage is old hat though. RAM discs are where it's at!

RAM disks are where it's at right until you want the data to be available across reboots or power cycles. As I said up there, great for ephemeral data, not quite so great for persistent data.

Also requires a 64bit OS to do effectively, particularly with Windows, where the memory model goes seriously screwy over 3GB on 32bit systems.

Re: Geekery

I prefer to spend money on pointless bike enhancements personally ;-) so long as my PC can load my dirty mpegs I really don't give a monkeys. But I'm sure if i was into computers I would have to have one of these as it seems completely pointless and over priced!
