I'm still not sure what the maximum size drive you can use with a
RamFAST but if you using a single 32 MB ProDOS boot partition and make
the other 11 partitions 2 GB HFS, then you can theoretically use a 22
GB drive with a RamFAST.

The Apple High Speed SCSI (and possibly the Rev C as well) can allow
up to 127 partitions I believe but don't quote me on that.  If it
does, that allows for up to 250 GB.

Then there is the problem with using HFS so much as you are almost
certain to run into problems using it at some point.  :-)
