About Hardware GeForce MX350 [Disk]
GeForce MX350 is an entry-level GPU from NVIDIA, based on Pascal architecture with 640 CUDA Cores and 2GB or 4GB of GDDR5 memory. It is usually used in thin laptops to improve graphics performance over the built-in iGPU.
In this particular use case, a portion of the VRAM (Video RAM) on the MX350 GPU is used as a VRAMDisk, which is a temporary storage space that resides directly within the VRAM. VRAMDisk can be used to store temporary files at high speed, especially in certain scenarios such as caching graphics data or technical experiments that utilize the high bandwidth of VRAM. In this experiment, VRAMDisk is used to store data and just test the speed.
