Default External RAM?

I was wondering if I could add RAM without messing with the MB. Google
tells me that evidently you can use an external HD or thumb drive as RAM.
Is this effective? Anyone tried it? Anything better and easy to add?

TIA




It will be too slow to do you much good.

Not a big deal to install RAM in your computer.


That said, if you are running the 32 bit version of XP , it won't do you
any good to install more than 3 gigs unless you enable PAE, and that can
be tricky
