Understanding ReadyBoost And How it Can Speed Up Your PC
ReadyBoost is a feature implemented in Vista and in Windows 7 as well to simply speed up your PC. It uses your USB Drives, SD Cards and even flash memory as a disk cache which also helps saving up RAM space. This feature is strongly recommended for those who have 512Mb to 1Gb of RAM. You won't see a big difference in performance if you have more than 2Gb.
All you need to get started is a USB flash drive holding more than 512Mb of space (256Mb MINIMUM) and must have an access time of 1ms or less.
Here's how to set it up:
1. Plug your USB drive in the USB Slot on your pc
2. Go to Start, Computer, right-click your device and select Properties
3. Click on the ReadyBoost Tab
4. Check Dedicate This Device To ReadyBoost
*If you cannot see this tab, then your usb flash drive isn't supported
Hope this helps!
