About Vista ReadyBoost

ReadyBoost is the new feature of Windows Vista that improves system performance by utilising the capacity of an unused flash memory device.

If you're new to ReadyBoost and want to find out more about it, please see my ReadyBoost blog post.
If you're looking for a ReadyBoost compatible device, browse the database of tested devices opposite.
If you're confused by the inconsistent reports for the Kingston DataTraveler, read this blog post.
Want to know why people are reporting sequential write performance when ReadyBoost requires random write performance? See this blog post.

Please note that some devices slower than the recommended speed for ReadyBoost may still be listed as compatible. See this blog post for more details.
