Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention disclose a method, computer program product, and system for utilizing a block storage device as Dynamic Random-Access Memory (DRAM) space, wherein a computer includes at least one DRAM module and at least one block storage device interfaced to the computer using a double data rate (DDR) interface. During boot up, the computer configures DRAM and block storage devices of the computer for utilization as DRAM or block storage. Then the computer determines that more DRAM space is required. Responsive to determining that more DRAM space is required, the computer transforms a block storage device into DRAM space. Once the computer determines that the transformed block storage device that is being used for DRAM space is no longer needed to be used as DRAM space, the computer transforms the block storage device back to block storage space.
