Using a ssd drive for NX prt files and NX temp directories.

Using a ssd drive for NX prt files and NX temp directories.

Using a ssd drive for NX prt files and NX temp directories.

(OP)
In an effort to speed up working with large files I am going to save my prt files on a ssd as well as any NX temp directories. This drive can write 300-500MB/sec in actual tests (not bad but not great) so I want to try it for cad/cam duty. I would prefer to set up my work computer like my personal box which writes at 900-1200MB/sec using a ssd and some ram for caching but that's out of the question; my manager would never go for it. Back to the topic...I found the following NX directory variables i can use to point to ssd folders:

UGII_TMP_DIR
UGII_UGSOLIDS_TMP

Are there any other NX directories I can move to the ssd?
