Jump Drives / "Ready Boost"

[JoeW]

About 2 weeks ago I bought 2- 8 gig jump drives. I plugged one in the front slot and was immediately asked if I wanted to use that drive as "Ready Boost", I choose yes and was amazed that it smoothed things out. I have since moved it to a rear slot and it still amazes me.
FSX is smoother too with no lags, or hesitations or jumpy pans. Everything is just smoother.
I may be wrong but I think it uses that drive to place swap files and it's faster than the hard drive is/was.
I think I paid all of $6.00 each for them but I would try for maybe 16 or 32 gig drives next month.
Try it, It just may be a benefit to you.
If you are using a SSD or Flash card already this may not work.

8 Gb? My FSX has a near 200 Gb....

If you have 200 gb why are you even looking at this? Would it be that you are trying to give everyone a virus? MalwareBytes blocked a millisus cookie from you on my post.
I think you need to be blocked.

Joe, the administrators have checked YoYoSim for malware. With the tools generally used to check and prevent such issues YoYoSims doesn't appear to be or cause and problems at all. Rest assured all is ok for now. Yo Yo is a big participant at SOH and I am sure he would want to know if there were any problems.
