(meteorobs) OT -Reverse of Ram Drive(Disk) in meteor detection software.

[stange]

Question. Is it possible to do a reversal of what a Ram Disk does? e.g., 
Partition or designate a portion of a hard drive to act as memory where 
incoming data is stored by this hard drive memory until it stops, then that 
data is acquired & processed by the meteor software program at a more 
convenient time between meteor events without losing a "Watch time"?

The purpose here is to increase effective RAM, reduce down time between 
meteor recordings, allow (new) meteor data to come into memory even before 
the previous data has been fully processed by the softare program. This 
would make the hard drive a direct recording instrument without trying to do 
any processing at the same time.

Researching on-line has not indicated this has been invented yet. But I sure 
could use it in each my 3 meteor monitoring computers.

I am sending a copy of this to Joseph who designed the Sentinel software 
with Richard. It may be that the Sentinel digitizer box does "some" of this 
function?
