DiskBoost 1.0



Speed up hard drive operations with a virtual RAM disk! DiskBoost
maintains a blazing-fast virtual disk in your computer's RAM, allowing
you to make your computer faster by storing frequently accessed files
and data in the operative memory.

Unlike competitors, DiskBoost supports both volatile and non-volatile
RAM drives. The difference? Volatile disks disappear when you reboot
or turn off your PC along with any data stored on them, while non-
volatile permanent disks back up the data onto the hard drive. The two
kinds of disks serve for very different purposes.

Have any data temporary by its nature? Internet cache, browsing
history, cookies and similar traces must be cleaned up regularly. Why
bother with periodic cleanings when you can simply move the Temporary
Internet Files folder onto a RAM disk that'll disappear completely and
with no traces when you reboot your PC?

Work sets, databases or frequently accessed files that you cannot
afford losing? DiskBoost offers a perfect opportunity to speed up
access dramatically while maintaining the same level of safety and
greater security. It automatically backs up the contents of the RAM
drive into a file on your hard disk periodically and on system
shutdown, taking care of the data integrity.

Busy server of workstation? Map the entire hard drive partition into
the computer's RAM! DiskBoost offers tremendous performance benefits
under heavy load while maintaining the safety and security of your
data.

Sensitive information? DiskBoost encrypts everything stored on the RAM
drives on-the-fly, making your data impossible to intercept and
unusable if accessed without authorization. Hard disk images can be
encrypted, making the virtual partitions impossible to mount without a
password.

DiskBoost works transparently and automatically as a low-level system
device. It mounts the RAM drives when your system boots, giving you
immediate performance boost.
