BTW..using readyboost + eboostr 3 is like having an fast intel SSD in my netbook. Increased responsiveness by at least 100% (programs take half the time to load).
second, i am very interested in knowing more about eboostr 3, if that is the case. where do i get it, and is it freeware?
so you are saying that it works for the first four hours after startup, every startup? in other words, you can keep it moving if you restart your system every four hours?
isn't that obvious?
if, as you said, it increases responsiveness by 100%, isn't that worth a restart every four hours? my system completely reboots in 68 sec's. i get up grab a beer, a few doritos... when i come back it is up and running like before. what's a 68 sec break, to keep that kind of speed going?
