yes , but it's tedious to always type the subdirectory-names.
And I have some batch-files for copying,unzipping,archiving etc. 
files to/from ramdrives, which I don't want to change.

The large ramdrive is only needed occasionally, and 
generated on the fly , when I have a large file.
When I no more need it , it's removed to free
RAM for other tasks.


Sorry, that I accidently had changed the thread-name
