What good free caching software is out there for Windows? I'm planning on adding an additional 64GB of ram to my build and I want to use it as a ramdisk and use that for obscenely fast cache.

I'll be saving the data on the ramdisk to two 32 GB SSDs in RAID 0 for a 64GB ramdisk
Install Gentoo.

you are asking the same people that ignored your post yesterday.
Just runmount -o size=32G,noatime /home/ramdisk

I was trying to post for the other time zones. If you had a suggestion that would be nice, nigger.

There's your issue. Windows software that is actually useful is often behind a paywall

So I have to ask what you need this for out of curiosity.
From my understanding of how caching works (and correct me if I'm wrong) is the only way you would see a speed improvement is if you're constantly reading and writing a massive amount of data to your hard disk drives. The only situation I can see this being useful is if you're using the build as some kind of server.

You don't have a home server, anon?
imdisk is the best ramdisk for windows but it sounds like you're doing this for epeen and not anything actually useful
