"Works Great with time and the right Memory Stick"
Pros
Better than Readyboost. Version four does speed up machines, even higher spec machines with plenty of memory. Gains are higher on slower hardware especially machines with less memory or slow hard drives.
Cons
Cost for software and fast memory card may make this uneconomic. Gains are limited on higher end machines. Takes time to learn the most frequently used applications so gains are not immediate. Manual configuration of the product is required.
Summary
I've seen a lot of reviews for Eboostr indicating that it does not work. Surprisingly people often review it without actually trying the product. Eboostr does improve performance significantly over time so patience is required if you want to see a benefit. It took about a week using my laptop an hour a day before eboostr really showed its abilities. The laptop I'm running on has 4GB RAM but the hard drive performance is a little slow. Eboostr has made the machine feel more responsive.
You need a decent speed memory card or USB stick to get the benefits which when adding the price of the software may make it more economic for you to add more memory to your machine or upgrade the hard drive.
Eboostr requires a certain amount of manual tinkering to maximise the performance gains. This is done by excluding certain folders or file types. It seems logical to me that some of these optimisations should be included by default.
My advice is to actually try the product. It worked very well for me.
