Don't think you even answered my question. RamDisks only work when the computer is powered on, they need to be reformatted if the computer ever turns off because it is volatile memory. It does not hold information unless there is electricity running through it, when the system is on.

no, sorry for the confusion. It used to be about 256Mb but now it is 0 MB. Windows is telling me to reformat it and im not sure what to do because it was always the same without me manually requiring to reformat.

I used NTFS and there is used space (14.5/255)? I wasn't like that before and there is nothing in it! I utterly confused!

Windows creates index on drivers for things like they recycle bin, it takes up a bit of space.
