   I've been playing with ReadyBoost on my system - Windows 10/64, 8 GB   
   RAM, Core 2 Quad 3 ghz. I'm running a SATA RAID 1 array, which isn't   
   the fastest thing on the block.   
      
   I remember reading about ReadyBoost and tried with a USB 2 reader and   
   a 4GB MicroSD card I had laying around. I noticed a bit of a boost,   
   but it interfered with reading cards with the reader - I think the   
   reader doesn't like having more than one card drawing current.   
      
   I was poking around on Amazon and found a 32GB SSD for $12. Ok, I can   
   experiment for that little $$$, and I've got a use for it if it   
   doesn't help.   
      
   Put it into my system (luckily I have 6 SATA ports), fired up Windows,   
   formatted the SSD, told ReadyBoost to use it, and I'm noticing a nice   
   little speed boost with my system. I haven't measured anything   
   with/without it, but definitely feel like apps are opening quicker.   
      
   Maybe I'll put a page file on it, see what that does...
