    Intel® Turbo Memory Card on Mini PCI-Express slot


    I was wondering as I've got 2 spare slot Mini PCI-Express free on my laptop, if such Intel Card (ITM) could fit inside...This technology is quite not expensive actually.

    The mini PCI-E is very ease to access under my keyboard and it just have to be inserted, and at system reboot, Windows7 will recognize straight that card and the proper Intel Turbo drivers.

    It does act like "Windows ReadyBoost" & "Windows ReadyDrive" under 7 and Vista...so the system will load faster....boost the disk cache, load faster Apps & perform battery improvement.

    Work on "Mobile Intel 965 Express Chipset familly" & "Mobile Intel 4 Express Chip Familly".

    -1 gb (RD, RB, no software pinning),
    -2gb (RD, RB, no software pinning),
    -4gb (RD, no RB, software pinning).

    Any experience in return?:) or it is just like inserting a SD Card in the Card Reader to Ready Boost?

    EDIT:
    Looks some of you (threads) seems telling not bothering about...gimmick stuff for geek guy!?!

    That's just annoy me having spare mini Pci-e slot, as i won't install an expensive 3G card (I don't need it either!)

    With 4 gigs of ram any sort of boost program isnt going to help much since it wont often be used.

    Humm...I saw that and ready boost discuss reminds me that either....

    It still maintain some arguments for me.

    a)Will certainly not upgrade ram to 8gigs, that's mean i will have to buy 2x4gigs at an horrible price
    b)Thought could be handy for Programs like Photo Editor
    c)For an affordable price, it'll free my card reader for ever.
