I downloaded the trial version of QSoft Ramdisk enterprise 64-bit for Win7 and would like to allocate 8GB of my total 16GB RAM. I read the tutorial about configuration options but I must admit it's over my head. Any help would be appreciated!

Options I understand: drive letter (R, Disk Size (8GB), File System (NTFS)

I don't know how to configure:

- Use of "Resident" Memory...
- "Allowed" (default 1024MB)...change to?
- "Reserved" (default 32MB)...change to?
- Use System Memory (currently checked)...under "Allowed" slider shows default of 3360MB

- Volume ID - default is abcd5678 (can I change this to anything?)
- Volume Name: RAMDisk (guess I should stick with this?

Also, saving the image file:
- save in "compatible" or "extended" format?

How often to save to image file?
- synchronous write
- or periodic say 1 min interval?


Any help greatly appreciated!
 
Interested in the responses because I tried this RAM disk for a while but I didn't fool around with it enough to get everything to work.
 
I was going to try and get the ramdisk working with a new system to see if handbrake encoding was any faster.
