RAM DISK

[mkohman]

Hey All,

I have a question about Ram Disks.. I have 12 GB DDR 3 Corsair Ram overclocked and running at 1600 mhz..

Now I have a 128gb Crucial M4 SSD for windows 7 and apps and I have another 40GB Kingston V series SSD which I am currently only using as a cache disk for temp and tmp windows files and scratch disk for adobe premier pro and photoshop..

The question is this, will I be better of creating a Ram Disk instead of using the 40GB ssd? Will the Ram Disk be faster? How mush Ram should I use to create the Ram Disk? Also if you think Ram Disk is better for temp tmp files should I also use it as a scratch disk for premier pro or carry on using the 40gb ssd for this?

Thanks for all help and advice

i wouldnt bother, you already use an ssd to cache another ssd, adding a ramdisk is unneccessary and would also reduce available ram for your programs

you clearly use ram-heavy programs wo i;d stick with your current setup

Thanks for reply but what I wanted to know would the RAM DISK be faster than the SSD I am using for cache or wouldn't it even matter or be worth to do it?
