USB Stick For Ready Boost

[Joe Ogiba]

I wonder if Sandisk would come out with high speed Ready Boost USB Flash
sticks using the same memory from their Extreme IV CF.

I have a couple of USB high speed sticks with a meg of ram on them. With RC2
I plugged it and the Ready Boost actually appears to work. It recommends
890k free space to work. You can't put any files on it if you use it for
Ready Boost. Seems to speeding my computer quite a bit. The earlier builds
did not work but RC2 works for me. If you have a high speed USB stick and
you have RC2 and nothing on the stick try it out to see if works for you.

Why do you say you can't put any files on it if you're going to use it for
ReadyBoost? I've gotta 1GB stick here that's got 512MB dedicated to
ReadyBoost and about 480MB of files. Seems to be working here in that
configuration.
