The CP-1995/U doesn't appear to use PCMCIA. It's built more like a PC architecture embedded computer, with what looks like a ROM/RAM disk variant of Phoenix BIOS. I haven't gotten too deep into the reverse engineering yet, but the way the system is built makes me think that the RAM drive is implemented in extended memory rather than some sort of dedicated hardware RAM disk.

I have another military computer that does the PCMCIA thing, and I used to have yet another that used ordinary 3.5" PC drives.
