Using a flash drive as to boost your Memory.


If you are using Microsoft’s Windows Vista or Windows 7, you can insert a USB flash drive and commit some or all of the space on the drive to be used as memory. It called ReadyBoost and Windows uses it as a secondary cache of memory to help speed up your computer’s performance.

Simply right-click the drive and select properties, if it a ReadyBoost compatible drive, you will see the ReadyBoost tab at the top. Just follow the instructions and you’ll be set to go.

For Windows XP users, the ReadyBoost option is not available, but there is a third-party program that claims to offer the same boost for your XP machine. The software is called eBoostr™ (http://www.eboostr.com/)
