It takes some time to figure out how to set it up. but I have been using it with NT7 for a couple of years. The only problem is that the db folders eventually get too big to fit in the RAM partition. With more RAM you can make a bigger RAM drive and won't have to empty the data folders so often.
SSD will be a lot faster than an HDD, but can't hold a candle to Ramdisk. Main effect would be faster backfill of historical data on charts.
Never had any problems with corruption of NT7. Make sure that you always have backups of Ninjatrader Custom folder and everything therein in case you need to reinstall.
Should not be NECESSARY to use RamDisk to get decent performance.
Are you sure that Windows Search is not indexing your Ninjatrader db and program folders, and that your anti virus and malware software are not scanning those folders?
