I hope I can eventually get my hands on a unit to give it a thorough investigation, but I currently theorize that the reason is the controller on the ram disk. Technical specs show that it provides ~200MB/s throughput maximum (which is one reason it's sure not going to hit 300MB/s), but the question is whether that includes SATA overhead or not.

If it does, then something else is to blame and that bears further investigation.

If it does not, then 168 is pretty close to right if the controller can provide a little over 200MB/s performance.
