Windows 10: Is there ANY WAY AT ALL to make ReadyBoost appear on my gaming laptop that uses Windows 11?

So I recently got two USB drives, both 8 GB. I was going to use them to get my PC up to 16 gigs of RAM, and maybe use the other for VRAM, but when I watch a video on how to enable ReadyBoost, there is no option for it. I need the extra RAM and VRAM to play VR games, and even normal PC games such as Ghost Recon: Wildlands and DOOM ETERNAL.

Regarding Windows ReadyBoost

readyboost is a step between memory and page file, that can help prevent slowdown when windows accesses the HDD.

ruski missed a key point to readyboost - its not about MB/s throughput, its about lowered access times for those small files that are constantly being accessed

 

The readyboost tab is missing but is enabled in services.why?

Can you insert a different SD card on it to check if the same issue will happen? Which version of Windows are you using on the other device where ReadyBoost tab appeared? Is it running Windows 10 as well? This will help us isolate if the issue is only happening
with the SD card or the computer itself.

Meanwhile, we suggest performing the System File checker as it can help detect possible corrupted or missing system files that can be causing the issue. Kindly follow the steps below:

• Open Cortana/Search.
• Type in Command Prompt.
• On the Search results, right-click on the best match for it and choose
  Run as administrator.
• On the Command Prompt window, type in sfc /scannow then click
  Enter on your keyboard.
• Restart the computer after the process, then check if ReadyBoost tab will appear.

Update us with the outcome.

 

Readyboost Misconception Limits Memory Allocation

Almost all the readyboost tips I've seen focus on formatting the removable device correctly as a way of increasing the amount of memory readyboost will use. Some posts suggest using exFAT while others suggest using NTFS but they all say to choose, "use
this device for readyboost". Choosing this option is a mistake. When you click the readyboost tab at the top of the device properties box you have already designated it for readyboost. It is not necessary to choose, "use this device for readyboost". Doing
so sets readyboost to it's default. Instead, choose, "use this device." Then move the slider all the way to the right and click apply. To confirm the removable device(storage) is being used for readyboost simply read the text that appears. It will say, "This
device is being used to increase system speed".
