Ready Boost - Limitations

Limitations

Since flash drives wear out after a finite (though very large) number of writes, ReadyBoost could eventually wear out the drive it uses—though this may take a long time, depending on various factors. According to Microsoft, the drive should be able to operate for at least ten years. As capacities rise and cost per megabyte drops, USB drives are increasingly suitable for ReadyBoost.

Limitations that flash drives have in general is that they protrude from the computer, this can be avoided through the use of most built in cards readers and flash based card memory.

Famous quotes containing the word limitations:

    ... art transcends its limitations only by staying within them.
    Flannery O’Connor (1925–1964)

    The only rules comedy can tolerate are those of taste, and the only limitations those of libel.
    James Thurber (1894–1961)

    No man could bring himself to reveal his true character, and, above all, his true limitations as a citizen and a Christian, his true meannesses, his true imbecilities, to his friends, or even to his wife. Honest autobiography is therefore a contradiction in terms: the moment a man considers himself, even in petto, he tries to gild and fresco himself.
    —H.L. (Henry Lewis)
