In a nutshell, there are 2 types of memory used in flash memory, MLC and SLC. MLC is currently available in MUCH higher densities than SLC but, SLC is MUCH faster. Currently, non-GT =MLC, GT = SLC.
To be fast enough for Vista to approve a drive for Readyboost, you need it to be made with SLC as far as I know. I don't think MLC is fast enough. If you have a non-GT Voyager that is working wih Readyboost you likely either have an exceptional specimen, a non-GT version made with SLC, or Vista chose to use it for some reason we don't have enough info to diagnose.
