The Readyboost is an optional feature that allows ReadyBoost capable FlashDrives to improve your system’s performance.

To enable this feature, simply follow the steps below:

1.Insert your Memorex TravelDrive into the available USB port on your computer.

2.The Windows Vista operating system should recognize the drive and will prompt you an option to “Speed up my system”. Select the “Speed up my system” to enable this feature (Fig 1).

3.The TravelDrive device properties window will appear. Select the “Use this device” (Fig 2).

4.Click “OK” to enable the ReadyBoost feature. During this process, the LED on your TravelDrive will be blinking. Please DO NOT remove your drive until the LED has stopped blinking.
