Could you build this?

No Developing a Windows disk accelerator requires deep low-level systems programming, Windows kernel driver development, and storage caching architecture.

What it would actually take: A developer would need to write C/C++ Windows filter drivers (such as Storport or filesystem minifilters) to manage block caching in RAM or NVMe. This requires specialized kernel debugging tools (WinDbg), driver signing certificates, and rigorous handling of power states and crash consistency to avoid data corruption.
