|    RamFAST Rev C with Apple IIe    |
|    14 Jun 22 20:13:58    |
      From: mitch2gs@hotmail.com               I'm looking to use an Apple IIe with 'Total Replay' but my financial       situation rules out a modern mass-storage solution (e.g. Floppy Emu,       CFFA). So instead thinking about using vintage-era options I already       have on the shelf: a SCSI controller and external 52x CD-ROM drive.               So, I have a pair of RamFAST Rev C SCSI boards, but the ROM       firmware isn't the latest. One has version 2.01 (in both U15/U16)       while the other has 3.01e *but* 2.01 in U16. Will this combination       work, and support removable storage? (it's been so long I cannot       remember the specific differences between ROM revisions).               I'm almost a bit hesitant to use a RamFAST in a IIe, but I'm       guessing its fast ProDOS-8 performance should be comparable to       what I've experienced with my IIGS's. If not, would I be better off       using one of my Apple High-Speed SCSI controllers to operate a       CD-ROM instead?               And on a side-note, what is the best way to create a bootable       ProDOS CD for Total Replay? Anything on the Windows side,       or will I have better luck using software on my beige G3 Mac?              Mitchell Spector              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
