I use Maxidisk on my STe (German version). It even compresses files as
they are stored on the ramdisk with little aparent speed loss. I think
it is available from terminator.

The Problems I have are with double clicking on programs, sometimes
they refuse to run and present a dialog asking for SHOW PRINT CANCEL
just like for a document. The wierd thing is this fault is
intermittent. Anyway I think it is solved by saving the desktop (Old
ST desktop.inf seems to cause the proble.)
