Features: Increases the Portfolio’s Memory from 128K to 384K and increases the Maximum size of the RAM disk (C:) from 80K to 336K, Adds Enough extra memory for up to 132 pages of Text, Pass through Bus connector still allows you to connect Atari Parallel or Serial Interface peripherals, Second Memory Card Drive (B:) allows you to copy files from One Memory Card to another Memory Card-thus allowing you a safe way to replace aging batteries in your Memory Cards before they lose any valuable Data!, Pass through bus connector allows you to Connect a second Atari 256K Memory Expander to increase your Portfolio’s total Memory to 640K and allows a 592K Memory RAM Disk. Installing or removing a Portfolio 256K Memory Expander into or out of your Portfolio requires a Complete Cold Boot of the Portfolio. So always back up all Data Portfolio’s Memory information before installing or removing the 256K Memory Expander. Since the 256KMemory Expander re-quires no external power and gets its power to maintain the memory from the Portfolio itself, this Expander should Never be removed from the Portfolio or installed into the Portfolio with data in the Portfolio Memory or Expander Memory, in both cases it will require a Cold Boot (Erases the contents of the Portfolio’s Memory-both RAM and Drive C) of the Portfolio before it will work again. In other words once the 256K memory Expander is installed and the Portfolio is configured to recognize the extra memory it is best to leave it installed or do a Complete Cold reboot of your Portfolio every time you install the 256K Memory Expander.
