Hello Subhadip,

We suggest you to disable the ReadyBoost feature of the drive, here’s how to:

1. Plug in USB drive that has Readyboost on it.
2. Open My Computer or This PC on your File explorer. To open, press the Windows button on your keyboard, then type in Computer. The Search bar will open then click My Computer on the list.
3. Look for the Device with removable storage and locate the USB driver that has Readyboost.
4. Right click on the drive, then click Properties.
5. Click Readyboost tab.
6. Click the option title Do not use this device. When you are finished, click Apply then click OK.

Once you have done all the troubleshooting steps, Readyboost will be disable from the drive.
