I used to use a software called SuperSpeed RAMDisk on my gaming PC, because I had what at the time (over a decade ago) was a ginormous amount of RAM (32GB) and an at that time relatively new SATA SSD array, and I would put entire games into memory to nearly eliminate loading screens. These days, nVME SSDs are so fast in typical use cases that I don't see much benefit to this. It'd be interesting to have, but I'd rather get an PCI-E SSD vs wasting that slot for a RAMDisk.
