Is it possible to get a permanent RAM disk using Imdisk?

Question

I transferred my JDK, workspace, and Tomcat server to a RAM disk that is created using the Imdisk tool.

This step strengthened my Eclipse IDE and my performance.

But I lose my virtual disk whenever I boot my machine. Is this a way to save a RAM disk and its contents?

I use Windows 7, 64-bit and 8 GB of RAM.

Answer 1

Commands to automate this are in the Imdisk FAQ :

There are ways to run scripts when you start Windows (to load a disk image) and when you turn off Windows (to save ramdisk to a disk image).

The IMDisk toolkit wraps IMDisk and has a startup parameter: http://reboot.pro/files/download/284-imdisk-toolkit/
