How does ReadyBoost work?
In a layman language we can say that flash drive can be used as RAM with the help of 'ReadyBoost'. But the fact is that a flash drive cannot replace or work like a RAM.
Flash drive is too much slower than a RAM. I explored some articles about physical memory, virtual memory and readyboost. So there are a few questions wandering in my mind.
Hard drives get slow because of their seek time. Does readyboost cache data into flash memory so that latency caused by seek time, in HDD, can be eliminated?
Is ReadyBoost only caching service?
