Primo Ramdisk Context Menu

Disk Status

Disk Status section displays current status of the selected disk. The status may be different from the disk settings. This is because Primo Ramdisk may correct the wrong or conflicting settings. Another reason is that the settings may have been modified but hasn't been applied until you restart the computer.

This section displays the system managed and invisible memory information, including the information of total memory amount and current available amount.

This section also provides the entry to manage Invisible Memory by clicking on the icon .
