Hi, got a Lenovo X61t laptop/tablet with built-in SD card reader and
I'm using the reader mainly with a 4G sdhc for readyboost.

If your system has 2GB of RAM, you're not getting any "boost" from
Readyboost so you can pull the card out.

Thanks, well I got 4GB RAM + 4GB SDHC.

But I don't agree about there not being any "boost".

Google your arse off and you'll find that you are probably the only
person with over 2GB of RAM that feels that way.

Readyboost is useless with that much RAM, so this discussion has ended
and you can - or should - move on.
