[QUOTE="Evjl's Rain, post: 571324, member: 51905"] yes it might be correct but I still see a significant increase in my browsing speed according to my test, if I didn't use ram drive, my HDD usage if I opened 20 tabs at the same time was 99% but with ramdrive it was just 10% because most people are using pagefile/virtual memory and can can see browsing also increases pagefile activity regardless of ram size + HDD cache => high disk usage I disabled pagefile + have ramdrive => extremely low disk usage :D I really care about my HDD lifespan as I always saw my friends bringing their laptops to me with dead HDDs (6 times so far) browsers are smarter and it's good but the advantages of using a ramdrive is always there :D [/QUOTE]
