Unless you're doing heavy multitasking, I doubt you'll see any difference. You are already hurting speed wise because usb2 is slow compared to say sata or usb3. I played with ready boost a long time ago, and found it pointless.

I found after just a bit of research that my test yesterday did not meet the 
minimum requirements for ready boost to work properly. According to my findings 
at least a 1 to 1 ratio of flash memory to system memory is required with a 
maximum of 2.5 to 1 ratio. For example if your system has 4 GB of memory you 
should use at least a 4 GB flash device and as I understand the upper limit the 
same system could handle a flash memory device up to 10 GB. It would seem that 
anything more or less is not a valid option. One article said something about 
optimal flash memory is double the system memory. So in short an 8 GB device 
for a 4 GB system.

I do have an 8 GB flash drive which mathematically sounds like it will work 
fine with my 3 GB lap top, results to follow when I find out what they end up 
to be.
