The Sinclair QL Forum

Morning all,

My "new" 512K Expanderam arrived today and I now have a full 640K

My question is, what are you supposed to do with the metal plate that covers the bottom (or is that the top) of the RAM card? I initially assumed the board would fit into the side with the plate attached but it doesn't. I therefore removed it. The issue now is that there is a bit of the RAM card that is protruding from the side, not very elegant.

What do you all do?

Thanks

As the RAM card has a pass-through for something else (usually used for an FDD interface) I think the idea of the metal shroud was to cover the protruding part of the RAM card and all of the next expansion card in the 'chain'.

I see. So I just need a 3D printed RAM card cover in the QL style.
