I'm using two USB flash thumb drives, one is FAT format 2GB and another is NTFS format 4GB. Originally, I was using them on FAT format but I formatted one of them into NFTS in the last November to test Ver 4. </p> <p>I do not ever have any problem with them during the test period regardless of format, FAT or NTFS, without negative experience of speed performance by the format difference. Only problem I encountered was the case of 2GB Kingston Data Traveler - Win Sys 32 Blue Screen ( <a href="http://bit.ly/Sys32BlueScrn" rel="nofollow">http://bit.ly/Sys32BlueScrn</a> ) when I replaced the thumb drive with Kingston's. There was a similar problem comment by another tester.</p> <p>While I have no words for SD card because I have not tested it yet, I would like to say that there is still some risk in using Flash memory drive/media due to quality depending the manufacture - which is the same story with DVD/CD media.

When formatting with NTFS to make a bigger cache file the memory speed decreases significantly he flatly stated with no explanation of why.<br /> I wonder if others have found speed performance drops when formatting NTFS? </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/sd-card-conflicts#post-1168 Mon, 01 Mar 2010 09:05:28 +0000 zPedro 1168@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>Thunderbird failed again so I excluded SD Memory Card from eBostr's cache again. Everything returned to normal after that. I'm not understanding what's going on. As soon as I can I'll try a different card. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/sd-card-conflicts#post-1167 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 18:14:31 +0000 zPedro 1167@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>Problem solved but not understood. I removed Advanced Memory and NV caches. Unninstalled eBoostr, rebooted pc. Reinstalled eBoostr following all the steps. Created 3 caches, Advanced Memory, NVCache and SD Memory Card. This last one, although is a 8 GB Card, eBoostr only recognizes 4095 MB (I don't understand this). It's filling the cache right now for the second time but stopped at Advanced Memory 100%, NVCache 62%, SD Card 7%. </p> http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/topic/sd-card-conflicts#post-1166 Sun, 28 Feb 2010 15:00:57 +0000 zPedro 1166@http://beta.eboostr.com/forum/ <p>Yesterday I added a Lexar SDHC 8GB PRO 133X to eBoostr, tried formatting it with exFat, tried NTFS, and the results were horrible. I had to repair MSOffice and Firefox, Thunderbird almost disappeared, som other programs ended to work so today I finnished removing the SD Card from eBoostr. Tried with and without Superfetch and Prefetch but nothing solved the problem. My system is Windows Vista 32 bit, 3 GB RAM, 1023 MB unmanaged memory and 500 MB NVCache for eBoostr. ReadyBoost and ReadyBoot disabled. I wonder if there is a limit of 4 GB cache for this card to be used with eBoostr? </p>
