Speed up Your Computer with ReadyBoost

Digital World

As  we all  knows ReadyBoost term has been around since the days of Windows Vista. As a performance tool ReadyBoost is smart and well-designed technique.  It acts as a write-through cache. This implementation means that data is still written to the hard drive and will not be lost if the USB drive is pulled out of the port. So Speed up Your Computer with ReadyBoost article is best step by step guide, .

A less expensive hardware upgrade that’s still quite effective is to use Windows ReadyBoost technology to improve hard drive performance. ReadyBoost works by supplementing system memory and mass storage access with a portion of fast flash memory from a USB thumb drive.

To make ReadyBoost work, you need a thumb drive or media card with a capacity between 256MB and 32GB. Further, I recommend that you use a USB 3.0 thumb drive and attach it to a USB 3.0 port on the back of your PC. It’s best to use the  back because this thumb drive is dedicated to ReadyBoost; you won’t use it for anything else.

After you have the thumb drive, follow these steps to use ReadyBoost on your system:

1. 1st  Plug the thumb drive into a USB port on your PC.
    You may see an AutoPlay notification appear. Dismiss the notification, though if you see a          ReadyBoost option, choose it as a shortcut.

2. Press Win +E to open a File Explorer window.

3. Choose This PC from the items listed on the left side of the window.
You see an overview of all storage available to your computer. One of the items listed is the thumb drive you just inserted.

4. Right-click on the thumb drive’s icon in the This PC window.

Choose the Properties command.

6. In the drive’s Properties dialog box, click the ReadyBoost tab. If you don’t see the ReadyBoost tab, the thumb drive’s technology isn’t compatible with ReadyBoost. Otherwise, you see settings similar to the ones shown in Figure

7. Choose the option Use This Device. Other settings presented need no further modification.

8. Click OK.
Your system  immediately starts using the thumb drive to enhance performance. Don’t be alarmed if its Capacity graphic in the This PC window turns to red. That’s the setup you want; nearly all the thumb drive’s storage is used to improve system performance.

  •  For another performance boost, consider adding a second thumb drive to your computer and dedicating it as well to ReadyBoost.
  •  You can use as many as eight thumb drives with ReadyBoost on a single PC.
