SUMMARY
RAMDrive is a memory-resident program that enables you to use part of
your computer's random-access memory (RAM) as if it were a hard disk
drive. By using RAMDrive, you can make MS-DOS Task Swapper run faster.
When you install MS-DOS, the Setup program copies the RAMDRIVE.SYS
file to your DOS directory. To create a RAM drive, you add a DEVICE=
or DEVICEHIGH= command for RAMDRIVE.SYS to your CONFIG.SYS file.
