I was wondering if maybe someone could clear this up for me. I did a search and could not find much useful information about this.
I am aware that flash memory has a limited number of times that it can be written onto. When my usb key is being used as a ReadyBoost device, the tiny light on it is constantly flickering, indicating activity. Is Vista just reading from the usb key, or is it constantly writing to it as well? I would feel kind of paranoid about my usb key prematurely dying if Vista was constantly writing to it.
