Depends on your Squid. 2.x provide the 'null' cache_dir type which
prevents disk usage. cache_mem controls how much memory is allocated for
the caching of files in RAM.

You might be better doing a re-format of the cache_dir drive though.
(You are running the OS on a separate disk to the Squid cache right?)
