Supercharge Your PCs Performance With SanDisk USB Flash Drives
Running Windows Vista? Then you can use a SanDisk Enhanced for ReadyBoost USB Flash Drive to improve your PCs performance without the hassle and expense of installing additional RAM (Random Access Memory) in your system. And you can still use the flash drive for file storage as usual.
How ReadyBoost Technology Works
ReadyBoost allows your PC to use any Enhanced for ReadyBoost flash drive as additional memory. In effect, the flash drive becomes an extension of your systems RAM. Because applications can retrieve data from the flash drive more quickly than from your PCs hard drive, your system responds faster and runs better.
The Choice Is Yours
When you plug in any Enhanced for ReadyBoost flash drive, Windows Vista gives you the option of using the drive to speed up your system or as storage only. You may then choose how much of the drives memory you want to use as system memory and how much you want to reserve for file storage.
Your Data Is Always Safe and Secure
With ReadyBoost, data stored on a flash drive to boost system performance is also backed up on your PCs hard drive. You can remove the flash drive any time without losing any information or harming your system. Also, all data stored on the flash drive is encrypted, so it cant be accessed or tampered with if the drive falls into someone elses hands.
The More Flash Memory, the Bigger the Boost
To take advantage of ReadyBoost, you need at least 1GB of free memory on a flash drive, and ReadyBoost can take advantage of up to 4GB. Thats why, if youre running Windows Vista, its a good idea to use higher-capacity flash drives so youll have plenty of memory for ReadyBoost, and plenty for your file storage.
