Hello,
1. ReadyBoost is method to speed up windows _BOOT_ time only. Nothing more. You

Hi Herman,

Remember, there are two types of RAM disk, hardware, and software only.
I would expect that the hardware ones would be considerably faster than
software only. But I don't have either. So that is mere expectation
