-===== Create a Ramdisk =====
+Ramdisks are very fast as purely in memory.
-<code bash>

-**NOTE:**  This mounts a ramdisk with 240GB under the path /mnt/ramdisk.
-  * **-t tmpfs**:
-    * tmpfs only uses memory when you it contains files.
-    * When it is empty, it will take almost no space in RAM.
