It doesn't use it as RAM. It's essentially a gimmick.
Readyboost is a supplement to normal caching operations of the file-system. Prefetch, etc in most cases your not going to notice any difference.
when i was optimizing computers- we turned ready boost off (disabled the service) on most machines.
Just not useful and can cause problems.
