Oh you said storage not transfer... well there is no really good storage
option right now. You can run dlplus on a raspberry pi and that can serve
as a sort-of-NADS.

You can try to build a QUAD which gives you 4 32k banks that you can switch
between. So you could have a bunch of utilities in one bank and a bunch of
games in another and still have 2 banks empty for current work.
