Re: Best for ReadyBoost: USB vs. SD Card
You're right about nobody publishing those speeds. But if you can find them,
it's all about the Random I/O speed. I think that's the only criterion Vista
looks at when deciding whether or not a device is suitable for ReadyBoost.
But I could be wrong on that.
Samsung supposedly has a 4GB chip that can go right on the motherboard or
onto a hybrid drive. But I have yet to see any products offering that.
