Hello, I have an free bsd 4.1.1 running on my system with Apache...and I have an AMD K6 with 400 mbs ram...I am looking out for a ram disk driver for our system Normally, when you write out to a file the operating system has disk drivers which write the data out to a physical disk. Some programmers have written drivers that use memory and make that memory look like a hard drive to the operating system. This means when you read file from the disk the read happens VERY VERY quickly (much faster than reading from a hard drive). If any one can help me with getting info for a ram disk driver...I would be very grateful.
