RAM Disk
Part of the main RAM can be assigned on the RAM disk using System Menu.
The contents of the RAM disk will not be erased if the Power switch is turned on and off, since they
are backed-up by the main battery and the sub-batteries. The contents of the RAM disk are not
affected by pressing the RESET switch either. Since this RAM disk permits the use of INT13h, it
can be used as the built-in fixed disk. Its drive name is A.
Note:
Since the RAM disk shares part of the main memory installed in the main unit, a large-size RAM
disk may affect the operation of application programs.

Disk capacity : 768 KB
Since the basic drive supports the INT13h (Read Only) interrupt, it can be used as the built-in fixed
