Ram Disk and Windows 10 #296

Open piedealer opened 3 years ago

piedealer commented 3 years ago

Hello All,

Today I bought some RAM and now I have 156GB enough to make a 110RAM disk. Google directed me that best way to this would be ImDisk. Creating the disk seemed easy enough. And I can see a 110GB RAM disk with a assign letter. Transferring file there works fine.

I decided to try with MadMax which I previously tested on normal HDD and SSD as -2 dir under docker. However when I replace the SSD with the RAM disk I see that a folder is created where the temp files should go but it stays empty. NO temp files are created in the ram disk. The first -t dir cause a temp file that stays at 0kb. I don't get any errors or anything only thing in PowerShell is this and can stay like this for hours.

Working Directory: /mnt/harvester/ Working Directory 2: /mnt/harvester2/ Plot Name: plot-k32-2021-06-11-20-26-6760e5f2d316748c432e6a961494c0db93960a899899355533f36ece5140230e [P1] Table 1 took 109.718 sec

Another thing is that my C:\ start to be utilized on 100% with no idea what going on there.

Anyone else seen this? What am I missing?

Why mix linux and windows path names?
