Read ahead buffering while playing video file from optical disc

I was wondering if there is a program (or a player) that reads ahead the file to be played (usually mkv in my case)
to the RAM, so the disc that the video file resides in, won't spin for the entire duration of the playback,
but only every time the cache is almost empty.

A program that I've used in the past (called DVDIdle), was doing that universally for every player I wanted,
but they've stopped updating it 6 years ago and now it doesn't seem to work with Windows 7.

The method I am using now, is to either having the drive wearing down and buzzing all the time,
or copy the entire file to HDD and play it from there.

I was looking for something more convenient, automated, without waiting for an entire file to be copied
or needing any HDD space, like I've used to in the past.

Anybody has a clue?
