In the latest version of the operating system of the line, Microsoft has proposed a unique idea. The essence of the technology was to connect the missing amount of RAM. Now there is no need to buy RAM sticks. They were replaced by ordinary flash drives that will connect to a computer via a USB bus.
Necessary
Windows 7 operating system, USB stick
Instructions
Step 1
For this technology, some obligations have been introduced: the volume of the flash drive must exceed 256 MB. There are no restrictions on the size of the plug-in flash drive. It should be noted that a flash drive means not only standard flash drives, but also flash drives. Roughly speaking, any drive that connects via a USB port. To perform this operation, you will need an already installed Windows 7 operating system.
Click on the "Start" menu - then select "Computer".
Step 2
In the "Computer" window that opens, right-click on the icon of any flash drive that you are going to use to test ReadyBoost technology. In the context menu that opens, select the "Properties" item.
Step 3
Go to the "ReadyBoost" tab and select the "Use this device" option (the parameters of this drive must follow the rules of use). Here you need to set the amount of disk space on your removable drive, which will be reserved in the future to speed up the operation of the operating system. Click OK.
Step 4
After the performed actions, your system will configure the cache on the selected drive. This process will take 10 to 15 seconds. After completing this process, ReadyBoost technology starts working.
Step 5
If you go to the Computer window from the Start menu, it will be clear that the free space on your flash drive has decreased. The cache file "ReadyBoost.sfcache" will also appear on this disk.
