This is different. The RamFactor partitioning software only lets ProDOS
see one partition at a time. The RamFast software lets you see all off them
as long as you have enough non-disk-slots to 'shadow' them in. ProDOS itself
cannot see more than two partitions per slot, so the RamFast software (among
others) fools ProDOS into thinking that other slots are holding the remaining
partitions. The RamFactor software does not do that, unless they've changed it
a lot since I bought mine.
