How to Use USB as a Ram Hello, welcome back to my channel, Today we gonna learn how to use USB as a ram. So let’s get started. to improve the speed of your Windows PC by using a USB flash drive as a virtual RAM. As long as you’re using Windows 10, 8, 7, or Vista, Windows comes with a built-in feature that makes it super easy to allocate the entirety of your flash drive as extra memory that can be accessed when needed. Unfortunately, there’s no equivalent option for mac O S. So Insert your blank USB flash drive into the PC.

Right Click on the USB & Go to “Properties”. Next, click on the “ReadyBoost” tab.

If you see an error on the tab that says that your drive is not suitable for ReadyBoost, you may have plugged the drive into a USB port that isn’t fast enough. Try a different port. If that doesn’t help, you’ll need to use a different USB drive. If you see an error that says the computer is fast enough that ReadyBoost won’t provide any benefits, it’s usually because you’re using an SSD (solid-state drive). No performance gains would be possible with a USB drive in this case.
