Software Dev / Re: Faster save by RAM "dump" instead of creating image/movie files?

The processing overhead for creating DNG files or H.264 encoded MP4 files is relatively low compared to the other factors like drive&bus speed.
You won't see a significant speed improvement if you compare raw to DNG saving, but it is there. Mostly because only one large file needs to be created. (Which might lead to FAT32 problems if it gets too big)
The fastest saving is H.264 encoded MP4, but it goes along with quality reduction.
To get the highest speed you should use the eSATAp Port instead of USB and safe to a SSD.
