Where are these ReadyBoost Drives i hear so much about?
I'm in need of a new Hard Disk for my laptop and so i've been looking for a
new Hybrid Hard Disk- one that supports Vista's new ReadyDrive feature. I have looked at numerous websites- including some that sell OEM drives and I can't find any! Anyone know where/how I can get hold of one for my 1 year old laptop? Thanks, Charles, UK, London

AFAIK any Hybrid HDD will support ReadyDisk on Vista. You can Google on
Vista Ready Drive and get links to available documentation. If you also Google on laptop hybrid drive you will find that you may not be to replace an HDD in an existing laptop with Hybrid model "Charles" wrote in message ...

Thanks, I've looked at the links and done Google searches which only show
information about the Drives and no links where to buy them. I guess you can't get buy Hybrid Hard Disks for laptops yet. Shame! Anyone have any ideas when they'll release them to the public to buy for their current laptops? "JW" wrote: AFAIK any Hybrid HDD will support ReadyDisk on Vista.
