Ramdisk

info

This feature requires the Storage package.

RAMdisk allows using part of RAM as an attached device (block device). Compared to tmpfs, this allows using RAM as part of a RAID, or in any other configuration where a device — rather than a folder — is required.

warning

A RAMdisk is cleared on reboot or power loss.
