Pair with any good quality SSD. I've used a bunch of Samsung ones and they've always been solid. But get the Pro versions.
Ram disk is too volatile. Don't even.
USB sticks, even though they might be USB3 are terrible for start up drives. They don't have the endurance, speed and internal management (controllers, cache, firmware et al) that a propper SSD has. SSDs are almost computers in their own right, dongles are just dumb storage with a common connector.

HOLY BLOODY CRAP.
Ok, links to the bits you bought please. I need to get on this... might also try Ram Drive but thinking that might be too much hassle.
Or would a USB stick of decent quality do the same? I have researched a fair bit but get such mixed reports.
