  I do it works fairly well.  Although I do have some problems with it.
If you delete a lot of files, i.e copying your other hard drive partions 
on then back off to defrag them, it gives you some sort of command not 
supported error.  It will not mount the third partion of a disk until you 
jump into Prodos 8 then return, after a cold boot.
 Let c.. my main hard drive is id 6 and it is id 5 and it will always try to
boot the zip if there is a disk in the drive.  I rember the priority 
being from largest to smallest so this seems wrong. < ?? >
 O and most annoying. I always wait for the Ramfast is scanning the 
devices for the full 45 seconds since I hooked up the Zip. I never really 
saw it much before.

  It does seem fairly fast tho and other than these there don't seem to 
be any problems with it.  I'm glad I bought it.
