Yup, such a device exists.  It's called the PolyDisk.  It's put out by:
	Polyware ST
	5715 Horning Rd.
	Kent, Ohio  44240
	(Phone: 216-673-5591)
 
  It currently only comes in a 512k size, but then, it only costs $200 + P&H.
  You can also order it with a 5-hour battery backup, and/or a clock
for a fairly small additional price.  ($34.50 and/or $28 respectivly)
Rumor has it that you may be able to expand the unit with a bit of hardware
know-how, and also that  they're working on an extended 2meg version, but
there's no telling when that version will be out.
 
  I've been thinking of getting one myself.  A half meg ramdisk would be
good enough for 90%+ of the things I do normaly anyhow and it can be
configured to also use some of main memory for larger disks.  (I don't
think I'd want to go that route since the data stored in main ram is
most likely lost is you have to reset and is definately lost if you have
power glitch even if the external ramdisk itself is battery backed-up...)

  If anyone gets (or already has) one of these, I would certanly appreceate
word back on how well it works.....
