AR Soft RAM Disk

A driver used to create an additional drive in your memory

AR Soft RAM Disk is an easy to use yet powerful Windows software solution developed to create a new drive in your memory for a quick performance boost.

Although it may sound a little bit complicated, developers have managed to make everything work like a breeze and the thing that makes it easy as pie is the interface.

Very clean and well organized, AR Soft RAM Disk's look relies on a total of three tabs, with a dedicated option to enable or disable the application on the go.

Each of the three tabs, “General”, “Geometry” and “File System”, is designed to give full control over the application, so it's highly recommended to check every single feature before enabling the app.

While the “General” screen lets you control the drive letter, the operating mode and the startup type, “Geometry” is the one that helps you set up the disk size, the bytes per sector, sectors per track and tracks per cylinder. If this sounds like rocket science to you, it's better to search the web for more information because AR Soft RAM Disk has no help manual included in the package.

The volume name and ID can be configured in the “File System” tab, the same menu that lets you specify sectors per cluster, maximum root entries and boot signature.

Of course, you don't need a super fast computer to run AR Soft RAM Disk, as it runs on low resources. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work well on Windows 7 and some compatibility issues sometimes prevent it from running.

But overall, it is quite a handy utility, but the real problem is that it's exclusively addressed to more experienced users. The lack of a help manual is definitely a thing to be revised in the future.
