An open source enhanced Linux RAM disk module. This Wiki is intended to serve as a source for RapidDisk related materials which includes installation, setup, configuration, and troubleshooting guides.

Testing

The majority of data integrity testing and benchmarking was accomplished using the fio test utility. Also byte level data volume contents were closely examined via the native hexdump utility and invoked:

$ hexdump -Cv /dev/rd0 | less
