RAMdisk gets write protected when copying 07 October 2016, 13:57 |

I'm using geil dragon 32gb ram x3 to get 96gb ram (in bios it reads micron ram)
And i created 32gb ramdisk and pair it with 32gb image on another drive... sync every 1 min.
thing is, when im copying a lot of files to that ramdisk im getting write protected sometimes but when i choose try again 3 times the copying process resumes.. planning on using this for diskless so should i be worried about its stability?

Hmm i'm having another strange problem and i think it's related to this.. I'm using Kodi and its database is stored in ramdisk. Kodi would scrap new content from website API and updates the library (write to ramdisk). But Now i cant seem to update it. Updating to SSD works fine though.. so it's not scrapper problem.
What would be a better solution for my scenario then?
I don't wanna lose the library data when the machine reboots either.

Some programs don't work correctly with a disk that is a standalone volume. Ticking the Emulate Hard Disk option may help, it will emulate a hard disk with partitions.
It sounds like you should be using SSD though. A RAM Disk is for volatile data that can be lost or must be lost upon reboot.
