You can see in a lot of scenarios its a lot closer to the RAM disk than you might imagine and its often half way between a SATA SSD and your RAM disk.

 

Its quite interesting how much of an impact the hard drive driver has on the RAM disk. It looses a lot of throughput compared to native speed (RAM can do 40GB/s and random access should be 5 GB/s).

Just thought this was really cool. What do you guys think?

Yeah, but that is faster than nessacary. If you had a 256 go RAM disk, with programs installed on it, it is unlikely you would notice any kind of significant increase in speed. Ram disks are generally only for caching
