Hey Matt.

RAMCharger! That's it! I was trying to remember what it was called. I had seen some RAMKeepers come up for sale on eBay but they were all for IIgs boards and not the RAMFactor.

I believe the only thing you need is to connect power to the board and it's now a NVRAM disk. NV as in Non-Volatile - incase someone didn't know.

So the board contains its own refresh clock?  (Which it would have to
switch to the Apple clock when operating, to avoid asynchronous messes.)

I used to have a RamCharger, but sold it (like a fool) during the early 90's. In my defense, Apple 2 hardware was not worth much in those days.

From what I can recall, there was nothing resembling a clock generator in the external unit.
