The 128MB CF card is perfect for the //e, being 4 - 32MB
volumes is all they can handle, with 2 volumes being mapped
into a second slot. Anything larger is a waste.

While writing my original post, I had in mind the case where the user already had such small cards available. For example, I have a couple acquired from digital cameras where the card was replaced or the camera failed.

In fact, I was mostly trying to make a point about using multiple ram cards with a USB adapter. Actual ram card sizes wouldn't matter as such except in the case where one has too much. :)
