[HINT][VISTA]Flashdrive as RAM
August 5th, 2016
Enjoy this small tip
Its called Ready Boost and u need a pretty fast flashdrive to use it, I got a sandisk U3 (2 Gb)
using is pretty simple right click on the drive icon and click on properties, therz a tab reading ready boost
unfortunatly most ppl with modern desktops and 1 GB RAM (min for vista ) will find it useless coz it caches the program files to the USb so therz less amount of swapping. However considering how most modern Hard drives are pretty fast and the impact of swapping on the HD doesnt effect the speed of the sytem to that much an extent, although toshiba laptops which arent as fast as the normal 5400 RPm on other hard disks might find this option useful
Yhea that is what it is called ready boost, so are you saying that it is useless for many?
I just found out out about the feature so i decided ato paost about it….
Nah, thats oK thanxx for posting
But personally Iv tried it and its more of a hassle at time, including improper shut downs I’d say Its useful for ppl with <= 1 Gb RAM Iv got 1.5 Gb ram and a SATA HD and iv never seen any diff
oh ok
well i have 2gigs ram and a 120gig sata too so i should be fine
