When the system is
shutdown, RamDisk Plus automatically and
transparently saves everything on the virtual
disk to a special area on magnetic disk. When
the system reboots, it automatically and
transparently reloads RamDisk Plus to the exact
state it was in at system shutdown.
RamDisk Plus has a wonderful new feature we call
"Instant On". "Instant On" means that RamDisk Plus
contents are made available to the Operating System and
Users the instant the RamDisk comes online, even though
the contents of the last backup are not yet fully loaded
into RamDisk Plus. It means that applications that use
RamDisk Plus do not have to wait for it to be fully
populated with the backup data to be fully operational
right at boot time. On large RamDisk Plus units fully
restoring the backup data may take a significant amount
of time. Without "Instant On" users and applications
would have to wait much too long to access their data.
RamDisk Plus XP, 2000, & 2003 dramatically improves the
performance of all
applications running on Windows XP, Windows 2000, &
Windows Server 2003. In tests run with the Intel Iometer
benchmark, RamDisk Plus shows over 50 times performance
improvement over a standard Microsoft cached disk
partition on Windows XP, 2000, & 2003 operating
systems......That translates into a 5 to 10 times
improvement in overall application speed for most
applications..... For applications that are pure
Input-Output this means a 50 times improvement in
application speed. From a functional point of view, the
Home and Professional versions are identical on Windows
XP. RamDisk Plus XP Home edition will NOT run on the
Professional Edition of Windows XP. RamDisk Plus 2000
supports Pro, Server, Advanced Server & Datacenter.
RamDisk Plus 2003 supports Server, Web Server,
Enterprise Edition, and Datacenter Edition.
See
our benchmark results.
A
typical user will see dramatic performance improvements
in their
application speeds , because the disk subsystem is
the slowest part of the computer and it slows everything
down. In order to access data stored on a magnetic disk
drive, the user has to wait for the mechanical speed of
the disk subsystem. All users need to do to improve
application speed is install their applications on
RamDisk Plus. It looks just like a real drive, except
that it is pure software. The software takes less than
five minutes to install and configure, and it saves you lots of money!!
