I got them from Oleg Rodionov who had designed several sizes of SRAM and F-RAM cards and was selling them on eBay. All the cards worked fine until late last year when the 128KiB RAM card that was merged with IRAM in my Indonesian made HP48GX "crapped out" and gave me a TTRM ( Suffice it to say that I was upset because I had a substantial amount of data, mainly source code, saved on that calc and I don't know where my most recent backup is -- I've moved to Colorado and the backup would probably be in an external HDD in storage but it might be weeks before all my possessions are shipped up here ).

For a card with a capacity of 2M, there are 16 ports, and backing up so much data is a hassle.
HP's connection kit can only access the data in HOME, not the ports, which makes the backup and recovery of the whole card tedious. Is there any way to easily backup and restore the entire ram card with all ports?
