Thanks to poster 'hafaba'.

Step 1: Download and extract this tool https://pixeldrain.com/u/jGvGraSo
Step 2: Install imdiskinst
Step 3: Depend on your GPU: [I am using RTX3090 - So I choose GpuRamDrive-cuda_x64
Step 4: Click Mount
Step 5: Now copy any big files (like your .bin / .ctg / .exp etc) to this new virtual drive
Step 6: Open your engine parameter from your chess GUI
Step 7: Point your book to this virtual drive

GpuRamDrive can be downloaded from its source https://github.com/prsyahmi/GpuRamDrive
