I know it' s not magic, but it seems to be. Job well done!
“I've begun to use Virtual Drive 12, initially downloaded as a (probable) means of speeding up occasional game play, which it does in spades! (As though I had time for it! - I'm ancient and have a particular fondness for the slightly-less-ancient Lucas Arts Star Wars shoot 'em up games - - XWing/Tie, etc. - - as stress-relieving entertainment.)
In real life, Im a consulting engineer with need for a wide array of reference materials, and a serious appreciation for anything that genuinely helps to speed my work. As with many busy folks, I don't wait well, and have just constructed a new quad-core super-go-fast machine to help alleviate delay issues with drawings and large spreadsheets, especially with interrelated multitasking. Games are a fun outlet, but Virtual Drive is emerging as a professional necessity in the quest for speed.
Virtual Drive is remarkably simple and intuitive, and a terrific help in eliminating "in-drive" disc requirements, and in obliterating disc delays. Additionally, some older discs are getting a bit scruffy, and this alternative will prevent further handling/use damage. It copies expertly and with uncanny accuracy. Very versatile with alternative formats.

As I work with it, I am coming to understand its remarkable potential. I see now that it can provide a high-speed substitute for all of my professional reference CDs, such as for CAD symbols, forms, fonts, info libraries, etc. Though a lifelong and arguably well-justfied skeptic, I'm getting excited - it will save many valuable hours. Interestingly, after ony a few applications I'm now looking at every CD I use frequently as a candidate for conversion. Am archiving copies of the virtual CDs in sattelite storage (HDDs are cheap - time isn't.)
My sole suggestion would be to include a simple animation during search operations indicating that there's something happening - there are long and disquieting "dry spells" while the computer is "thinking" during which one is tempted to kill the thing and start over. Perhaps a simple message that delays may continue for minutes (seems a lifetime if you're a skeptic) while the program and disc are shaking hands would suffice.
Thanks for a great product.”
