Can USB memory devices be used as temporary ram?

Not in XP.  Vista will have a feature called Super Prefetch or something like that that supposedly will allow you to do this.  But there are many reasons why you wouldn't want to do this.     \n\nNumber one is the fact that those USB Drives can be knocked out or disconected fairly easily.  And were you to, let's say, be running a very important application that happened to be using said device when it got disconnected (read moved a few milimeters) then you could have a serious system crash that might even result (if this feature is designed poorly) in a reinststall.  \n\nNumber two is memory bandwidth.  USB 2.0 Moves at best at 480 MegaBits per second.  The memory on your system should be (if it is at all modern) 3 times that.  So performance wise you'd take a hit.  \n\nFinally:  RAM is cheap.  1 GB DDR 400 Costs a little more than a 1 GB Flash Drive but isn't constrained by either issue 1 or 2.  We aren't talking hundreds and hundreds of dollars here

The latest are DDR2 memories equipped with a crucial chipset. They are really fast, but you'll need passive cooling to support them. For mor einformation check this link:

Boss, it is hard disk in case of PC. and memory sticks, also called cache memory that holds data even when power is off. this type of memory devices are called as non-volitile memory. now-a-days you are gitting cell phons with hard-disk that support upto 5GB of data storage

You can transfer the RAM memory IF the NEW system uses the SAME RAM chips.  If not, NO.\n\nI have upgraded systems and used certain motherboards BECAUSE they would let me use parts from the old system.\n\nThe only cure for spam is don't use an e-mail address, and/or don't connect to the internet!\n\nAs to viruses, get a good antivirus program.  I use AVAST!\nUse anti-spyware, etc.

2GB is the most memory your machine can handle

As you do not specify what you are going to use it for, I can only suggest you get as much RAM as you can, because there is no such thing as too much RAM.

Get a USB memory stick.  This is a much more useful device.  The prices have gone way down.

get a memory stick it store can loads or a hard drive.

Yes you can. Does it have anything illegal on it? You might want to delete those first!\nBut: the data will still work, the applications will still work, and the drive should survive the trip. Just be sure to pack it in something soft - a roll of socks maybe?

I need a memory stick.

Go to Crucial.com this site specializes in RAM for most PCs.  They'll tell you what they suggest is best for your application.  I've used them twice and highly recommend them.

That depends.  If it isn't filled to capacity, you can certainly add data to it.  If you mean can you erase the data on it and then write it again, no, you can't do that only media with a +RW or -RW can be erased and rewritten.
