Near the bottom of the page, is "RAMDisk Lite", using up
to 4Gb of RAM.

Unfortunately it makes things a little difficult since the RAM Drive
created by that software does not report back to windows as a RAM Drive
but instead as a Fixed drive.

I can use but it makes life a little more difficult.

Just being nosey, but why is that a problem - what difference (other
than that it goes when you switch off, obviously) is there between (how
Windows uses) a RAM drive and a "Fixed" drive?
