RAMFAST REV. B 256K SCSI: info needed



I just got an early model of RAMFAST SCSI:

RAMFAST Rev. B, 256K, serial No. 0134.

It looks clean and is claimed to work.   But its internal cable is 
missing ---- the cable that connects from the 26-pin IDE connector on the 
card to the back panel of the IIgs, to the 25-pin SCSI connector back there.

Question:  I have a spare SCSI cable from a CMS-SCSI card ---- has 26 
holes at the card-end, and the db-25 female connector for the back panel
of the computer ----- can this internal cable work with RAMFAST.

DMA AND RAMFAST:    My IIgs has a ZIP 7/64 accelerator, and it also has a 
Chinook RAM 4000  4 meg RAM board.  Should I set the dip switches for 
"DMA-ON" or for "DMA-OFF"?


With the bank of 8 DIP switches on this Ramfast, how should the DIPs be 
set when you have only one hard drive connected?

My hard drive is 239 megs SCSI and I want to keep the present partitions 
and all data as they now are.   Will RAMFAST force me to repartition and 
reformat?

Ramfast experts, please advise!
