    There is the designated memory expansion slot that can hold a card
that can be as big as eight megabytes.  That's the biggest IIgs RAM
card that I know of.  Very hard to find.  Now that you mention it, I
guess you can put a RAMFactor card in one of the other slots but I
don't know if it's possible to use both RAMFactor RAM and and
expnasion RAM at the same time.

     Larger capacity 5.25 drives can only be used with the BlueDisk
controller card.  3.5 inch drive capacity is 800K.  1.4M capacity is
possible with the Apple controller card made for HD drives.  The
resale price for these cards has been rising at an amazing rate.
