Hi guys,

I'm thinking of buying a 2 GB Pen Drive. My budget is 1k. Suggest me which to buy and why.
Suggest the make and model.
It must be ReadyBoost capable.

Thanks in advance.

None of the Transcends are ReadyBoost capable. There is one model I think but that's over priced and I've not tested it either. Transcends are cheap and slow.

Look at SanDisk (The Cruzer Contour/Titanium/Micro series are definitely capable of ReadyBoost, I've used them), and

Kingston (Guess the DataTraveler series are ReadyBoost capable)

There are OCZ and Corsair ones too but they are too costly in India :p

I think you might be able to acquire a SanDisk Cruzer 2GB easily for around 1000/- but am not sure of what's its exact price. Must be near 1-1.5k though.

few drives dont have bandwidth thats required for readyboost. it will work but it will get damaged soon.

nup not all. Only very few of them are readyboost capable.
Kingston Data Traveller 1 is not ready boost capable nd so is the Sandisk U3.

Readyboost supported ones generally has readyboost with their model name nd are generally bit costly than normal ones. A 2GB one shud cost u around 1.5k or even more.

watever u buy ... dont go for trancend V30 ever.. the slowest drive i have ever used

I second this opinion. Sandisk is much much faster comparitively. In fact no match.

Have a Kingston DataTraveller but never ever go for DataMini it's small compact but lack durability.
