"16MB" are you sure? Requirement for ReadyBoost external storage reuires a
capacity between 256 MB and 4 GB.

All devices will not function a a ReadyBoost deivice. Windows, vis
properties option, will test the device and state whether or not it is
suitable.

If device is OK - there is a "slider" made avialble (propertied) by which
you can set the space to reserve for ReadyBoost.
