I had just got a 128GB Sandisk USB 3.0 Flash Drive and I was wondering if there was any possible way to convert USB 3.0 to Sata III for my new Motherboard to make like a jurry-riggrd SSD for an operating system. Is this possible?

That is actually easily doable with Windows as well. Hell I was making XP flash bootables years ago.

Why not get a 128GB SSD? They are pretty...

Would it just be better to use it for ready boost or something else?
