C't 512 KB internal RAM expansion

/* Compatibility Problems */
* RAMDIS is not supported, not a problem in most cases, but won't work with some special types of expansion hardware, like [[Multiface II]].
* The expansion seems to have been designed independently of [[Standard Memory Expansions]] like the dk'tronics one. So, there is no (intended) compatibility. However, both c't and dk'tronics are designed around the CPC6128 banking mechanism, so they do work similar in some ways. Namely, both can map expansion banks to 4000h..7FFFh, but there are several differences:
** For the mapping to 4000h..7FFFh, dk'tronics uses values CCh..CFh, D4h..C7h, DCh..DFh, ... FCh..FFh whilst c't uses values C8h..DFh. Some of these values do overlap, providing resulting in some (unintended) semi-compatibility, but there's still one big difference: along with the above values, dk'tronics maps bank 3 to C000h..FFFFh, whilst c't maps bank 7 to that region.
