I have a device called megadisk, which is a cartridge device with 1 MB ram
which could be used as a RAM-disk. These devices were sold up to 4 MB. It
also has a clock and external power supply, so the contents would stay
there after powerdown. Before I bought a harddisk I loaded programs from
there, or I used it as temporary storage.
