Without ReadyBoost, When i open VirtualBox, The windows will slow a litle, with the Ready boost, the windows improve and the improvement is noticeble and also, with ReadyBoost, the Ram for VB can increase to 512MB from 256MB without decrease my Vista performance at all. Nice... The Ready boost is working fine for me.

Definition of Prefetch According to <a href="http://www.pcmag.com/encyclopedia_term/0,2542,t=prefetch&i=49634,00.asp" rel="nofollow">Pcmag.com</a> <blockquote>To bring data or instructions into a higher-speed storage or memory before it is actually processed.</blockquote> Means if ReadyBoost works as a Prefetch it should speed up applications Instead of Speeding Down them as in case of Word 2007. Ok u said Prefetch.

Definition of Prefetch According to Pcmag.com

To bring data or instructions into a higher-speed storage or memory before it is actually processed.

Means if ReadyBoost works as a Prefetch it should speed up applications Instead of Speeding Down them as in case of Word 2007.

And one important thing to keep in mind about readyboost is that it enhances the prefecth capability of the OS, like indexing and defragging on a regular basis. You are not going to see a dramatic boost right away just by plugging a readyboost drive into the system. It first needs to run long enough to establish usage patterns to work with superprefetch on the disc. Yes, I have used it.

I can't argue with you till someone sponsors me to test such stuff :P Hey man thats true But the System is using just 512mb Ram i posted what i felt is true.

Features such as ReadyBoost were made keeping a low to mid end system in mind. You cannot expect ReadyBoost to show a drastic change while using a High Performance RAM with a Top of the Line 1K$ Processor ! Testing of this should be done of a system having a normal Processor like the E6300/4200+ and with normal RAM like from Kingston or Transcend which majority of PCs use The Method used the test use of ReadyBoost itself is wrong !
