In this post we will learn how to use pendrive as RAM and increase the RAM in Windows! For that you need to follow simple steps given below:

Step 1: Plug in the pen drive which you want to use as RAM. I am using a 32GB pendrive. Make sure pen drive doesn’t contain any data. If it has some data, you have to format the pendrive.

To format a pendrive, right click and click on format.

Then click start.

A popup will appear. Now, click on OK . The screen would be extremely bright here at this point, if you want to enable dark mode click here

Step 2: Click OK once format completed. Now, right click your pen-drive and click properties

Then, click on ready boost

Step3: Click on dedicate this device to readyboost.

Step 4: Now, double click on your pen-drive and you will see a file called ready boost.

If you see the ready-boost file, this means the pen-drive will be used as RAM

Note: This will not change RAM from settings, your computer will use this RAM only when it needs. If you run a heavy game or app, then this pen-drive will be used as RAM . In order to clear site data and boost the speed, find the details here.
