    PCI-e adapter for DDR memory?


    Is there any adapter available or is it even possible where you attach the adapter into PCI-e slot and attach DDR memory into it so you could use that memory as RAMdrive. I have my dedicated memory slots (dunno the real name) used and I have 2 512MB DDRs unused. It would be great if I could do that and then have more ram/use it as ramdrive to speed up stuff. :)

    Thanks in advance. :)

    yea there are a few options


    there are a few designs out there
    i-ram = £250
    i-ram box = £250
    DDRdrive = DDRdrive X1: Solid-State Storage Redefined.
    all at silly high prices
    today i wanted to make use of 6 old ddr sticks sat collecting dust and had a google around, somthign at a £20 mark would be perfect. instead I find silly prices.
    ramdisc software for the ddr3's installed on the motherboard will do for tinkering.

    is it possible to use an old graphics card as a ssd drive i wunder. hmmm

    We still have 2 we bought years ago.
    Gigabyte GC-Ramdisk , which seemed a good idea at the time.
    Had completely forgotten about them till i read this thread.
