Note: Do not assume that RAM drives supporting 'AWE' (or Address Windowing Extensions) memory above 4 GB will also support unmanaged PAE (or Physical Address Extension) memory below 4 GB-most don't.

If this functionality is not provided, contents can always be preserved by start-up and close-down scripts, or manually if the operator remembers to do so. Some RAM drives automatically back up contents on normal mass storage on power-down, and load them when the computer is started.
