System & Utilities
AIM Toolkit
A Windows utility for creating fast RAM disks and mounting image files as virtual drives or folders.
What it does
AIM Toolkit can create a disk in system memory for temporary high-speed storage and can mount image formats such as BIN, IMG, ISO, NRG, VHD and VDI. Mounted images can appear as virtual disks, optical drives or mount points.
Why we recommend it
We recommend AIM Toolkit because it combines two useful advanced tasks in one open source package: RAM-disk creation and flexible image mounting. It is particularly interesting for users who understand why temporary high-speed storage or virtual images can improve a workflow.
Strengths
- Creates configurable RAM disks
- Mounts several common disk-image formats
- Supports virtual disks, optical-drive style mounts and mount points
- Useful context-menu integration
Things to consider
A RAM disk is volatile: its contents normally disappear when power is lost or Windows restarts unless data is deliberately saved elsewhere. Users should never place irreplaceable files only on a RAM disk.
