Using memory in your storage device to speed up your computer....

Hi folks,

Recently I'm having an issue with my CPU memory. Actually is about RAM capacity. I want to increase my RAM capacity to speed up my computer. ReadyBoost helped me to do this. ReadyBoost can speed up your computer by using storage space on most USB Flash drives and Flash Memory Cards. When you plug a ReadyBoost - compatible storage device to your computer, the Autoplay dialog box offers you the option to speed up your computer by using ReadyBoost. If you select this option, you can choose how much memory on the device to use for this purpose.

When you setup a device to work with ReadyBoost, windows shows you how much space it recommends you allow it to use for optimal performance. For ReadyBoost  to effectively speed up your computer, the flash drive or memory card should have at least 1Gb of available space.

You can enable or disable ReadyBoost for a specific flash drive or other removable storage devices.

 Here are some tips on what to look for when selecting a USB flash drive or memory card to use with ReadyBoost .

• The minimum amount of available space recommended is 1Gb.
• For best results, use a storage device with available space of  at least double the amount of memory in your computer (RAM).
• To work with ReadyBoost, storage device must support USB 2.0 or higher.
• For best results, plug the device directly to the computer instead of using external cables or hubs.

If your computer has a hard disk that uses solid-state drive (SSD) technology, you might not seen an option to speed up your computer with ReadyBoost when you plug in a USB flash. You may instead receive a message " ReadyBoost is not enable on this computer because the system disk is fast enough that ReadyBoost  is unlikely to provide any additional benefit. " This is because some SSD drivers are so fast they're unlikely to benefit from ReadyBoost.

In some situations, you might not be able to use all of the memory on your device to speed up your computer. For example, some memory devices contain both slow and fast flash memory. But ReadyBoost  can only use fast flash memory to speed up computers.

This function is currently available only on WINDOWS 7 operating system.
