A RAMDisk acts as a virtual drive on your system. It allows you to create directories, copy files to and from it, etc.... The data however is not written onto a hard disk, but remains purely stored into a particular part of your RAM memory. Hard disks have mechanical parts that allow to seek to a particular position on the magnetic storage media and to read/write data. This make them relative lazy. A RAMDisk can read and write the same data to upon 30-60 times faster than a hard disk ! However, the data stored in your RAM is "volatile" : it disappears when you cut off the power to the RAM memory, with other words, if you turn off your system. This applies to the content of the RAMDisk too !
