I am building a server machine with lots of RAM. At least 16G. I am planning to put my frequently read and written data in RAM so I am looking for software for creating RAM disks. This is for Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard 64bit.
Any recommendations? I would like one where I can flush the disk image into persistent storage upon demand. For example when Windows shuts down.
(I am aware of all the consequences of data loss when power is lost)

"Just dont": FIrst, 16gb is a low end RAM those days. Still, WIndows uses RAM as cache anyway - so unless you put some temp stuff there that has a lot of IO - nothing is gained.
