RAMFAST SCSI: Rev.B. question



In my never-ending struggle to develop the finest IIgs in New Mexico, I 
have just bought a used RAMFAST SCSI card, Rev. B (serial No. 0134).
256K

I have never owned such a fine card.   But I have some questions for 
RamFast devotees:


1) What's the difference between Rev. B and the newer versions?  Will it 
be compatible with Zip-GS 7/64?

2) When I install the card, will it leave intact the 7 partitions already 
in use on my Quantum 239 meg HD?

3) Where is the company that markets RamFast?   The warranty card in the 
manual says Miamisburg Ohio, but I think I read once it is somewhere else.

4)  If upgrades are available, are they worth the cost to Rev. C or D???

5)  Ive made a tentative $10 deal to get a burned out RamFast with its 
internal cable for $10.   If it is Rev. C or D, can the ROMs just be 
swapped to the Rev. B Ramfast that works????   Would such a chip-swap be 
risky to the good card's health???   [BTW, the Rev. B card lacks an 
internal cable ---- I am buying the burned out RamFast mainly to get the 
cable....
