Make sure you download the latest software, dont use the included CD September 23, 2008 Henry Fylstra Basically the software on the included CD is very very out of date. Make sure you download the latest version from Intel's website. I originally tried installing from the included CD but my computer refused to restart after that (a system recovery got me up and running with relative ease). Now I have it installed and working on my Dell Studio 1535 laptop but the question now is it doing anything? The truth is I have no idea. The Turbo Memory Console says that ReadyBoost and ReadyDrive are both enabled but I have yet to notice any difference. It must be doing something though... According to the demo video on Intel's website I am supposed to be able to select what programs I want to "boost" but that is not available to me. They must have gotten rid of it in this most recent software version I have.
Turbo Memory is Turbo Great June 1, 2008 R. Lee Fitch (Efland NC) 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I think this is a great thing to have. It does speed up the startup time and adds a bit more space to my loaded computer.
Helpful May 14, 2008 Alemaker (USA) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
The Intel Turbo Memory chip did help in opening programs that I use often. The most noticeable difference is that, before I installed this chip, Microsoft Office 2007 opened slower. With the addition of this chip, it opens quicker. It definetly helps loading programs faster. Price is extremely reasonable also.
Is it working? February 22, 2008 Trembler (D.C., USA) 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
Just installed today, did not notice any benefit. Works only with Windows Vista in an E-PCI slot. No noticeable improvement, no increase in Experience score either. Have not run any benchmarks yet.
System does not boot up faster February 15, 2008 Hirakawa 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This product does not make your system boot up faster but it will help you to speed up a little bit during your system recover from hibernate. The only best thing about this product is that it reduce the need to access the HDD significantly (Maybe able to expand HDD life span and save some power?).
