RAMDisk is a software driver that emulates as fully as possible the low-level functionality of a hard disk with system RAM. RAMDisk speeds up applications because RAM is much faster than mechanical hard disks for storing and retrieving data. Applications that do a lot of reading and writing to storage, like database queries, will show the most improvement with RAMDisk. RAMDisk can be configured to automatically load a disk image at startup and save the image to disk at shutdown. This allows the RAMDisk to function almost exactly like a hard disk; no data is lost when the power is turned off.
