Wayne, How fast would you say booting from the RamKeeper is, versus booting from a SCSI hard disk? Is it just the ROM disk contents that are preserved when you power off, or is all of the RAM preservered, too?
Just the ROMdisk contents are preserved when you power down the IIgs so it's basically just a device you boot from.SCSI isn't just SCSI. There's faster and slower drives and Faster and slower SCSI cards. I timed a IIgs without an accelerator using a Quantum ProDrive 240S and doing a shift boot
Rev C SCSI card 33 seconds ramfast SCSI 20 seconds CFFA card with campact flash 24 seconds RamKeeper ROMdisk 28 seconds. I compared the CFFA and an Apple Hi-Speed SCSI card when I first bought the CFFA card and found they booted in about the same time. Wayne
