c/net Download.com’s Review of VirtualDrive
VirtualDrive, with over 10 million copies sold worldwide, emulates your computer’s CD-ROM/DVD-ROM drive which enables you to run CD and DVD programs like PC games and DVD movies (non-CSS) directly from your hard drive without the use of the physical CD/DVD-ROM drive or the actual disc. VirtualDrive makes a copy of the CD-ROM or DVD-ROM image (called a virtual CD) directly on your hard drive and plays it in a “virtual drive”.
No more scratching or losing your CDs/DVDs — just copy them onto your hard drive and put them away. No more swapping CD/DVDs in and out of your drive in the middle of a game. Don’t waste your battery life running the CD/DVD drive. VirtualDrive also increases mobility for laptop users by storing the CDs and DVDs on the hard drive, eliminating the need to carry them around everywhere. VirtualDrive is a “must have” program for gamers, music lovers and travelers with laptops. Version 9.03 lets you use your system’s RAM to emulate a hard drive and run your programs faster.
