i don't think it has to be supported it's just a cache on a solid state device you could probably hook it up on a camera memory card, if vista can detect one as such

It does have to be supported based on Read/Write speed. There are a ton of sites listing supported drives. http://www.grantgibson.co.uk/misc/readyboost/ Honestly if you have 2+ gigs of ram it really makes little difference performance wise.
