    Title says it all. Is anyone using an SD card for ReadyBoost. I am looking for a 2GB card. If anyone knows of any good ones, please post here.

    Thanks,
    Mark

    i tryied one i had and it didnt work im not sure as to why but it might be that it was too slow to handle the trasnfers from thr comp to the SD card. From what i can tell is that you have 2 gigs of ram so its pointless to spend money as you already have enough ram to handle most programs

    Yea, I know you have to be able to sustain certain data rates for it to work right. I had a 2GB that didn't work as well: too slow.

    Also, it doesn't work exactly like RAM per say from reading off of MS website.

    Thanks for the reply.
