Use ReadyBoost to help improve performance
Like previous versions of Windows, Windows 10 has ReadyBoost. ReadyBoost lets you use a removable drive, like a USB flash drive, to improve your PC’s performance without opening your PC and adding more memory (RAM). To use ReadyBoost, you’ll need a USB flash drive or a memory card that has at least 500 MB free and a high data transfer rate. For more info about ReadyBoost, see ReadyBoost in Windows 10.

To use Ready Boost
- Insert the USB flash drive into a USB port on your PC.
- On the task bar, select File Explorer.
- Press and hold (or right-click) the USB flash drive (or SD card if you used one instead), then select Properties.
- Select the Ready Boost tab, then select Use this device.
- After Windows determines how much free space to use to optimize memory, select OK to reserve this space, so Ready Boost can use it.
Note
If Windows is installed on a solid state drive (SSD), ReadyBoost can’t be used because the SSD drive is already fast and you won’t get better performance by using ReadyBoost.
