@What is a mountable disk image? It's a virtual disk. "Mount a disk image" means that you allow system to use a virtual disk. In example, you can do a virtual hard drive image for build a file into your computer with a virtual hard drive.
@What is a RAM Disk Image? It is a special kind of virtual disk image. Using a RAM Disk Image, the virtual image isn't saved on your hard drive -it is saved on computer's RAM memory. @And a SD Card Image? There are Virtual SD Card Images. Is the same as there are virtual hard drive images, virtual disket image, virtual CD/DVD image... @Is an image just a single file? Yes! An image keep a drive (like hard drives or DVD's) in a single file inside your real hard drive. @How is this file different from any other? Using a disk image, you haven't got a real drive: you have a file in your hard drive emulating a real hard drive. The image disk is virtual: you haven't bought a drive in your nearest computer store, you have only saved a file in your computer.
