I was toying with an idea of installing 8.1 on a CF ram and using that to boot my 5300. That way I could use the HD for data storage only. How large of a card would I need to get and how would I go about doing the software to the card.
I think this would speed up my system because I would have fewer disk I/O and not be limited in the OS by my disk speed and transfer rate.
Will this work?
Thanks,
John
