Hi!
Interested in the following question:
What is the maximum capacity of RAM-disk can be created with the of StarPort?
Operating system Windows 7 (64bit) RAM - 32GB.
Allowed only 1024MB.
Is it possible to create more than 1024MB?
Thank you.

The maximum size of RAM disk in x86 and x64 system is the same - 1024MB. If you want to create larger RAM disk, I advise you to take a look at StarWind Server.

Developers promised to review memory allocation so upcoming x64 version is not going to have any limitation (except physical RAM size of course). So stay tuned :)
