The cable goes to the memory chip on the rear left. If you check the card
you'll find 9 memory chips or an empty socket for the one off your board.
Apples DOS Master will automatically load interger basic into it. You also
need it to run any version of ProDOS except I believe the first version.
There were a lot of program written to use it as a RAM disk.
