Re: Ol' (mostly) reliable
On the only device I had with RAM as the primary storage (though a PDA rather than a music player), you didn't. You recharged the battery in the device, and if that battery was in need of replacement, you hoped it would work while you copied anything you weren't planning to lose over to a computer. There was a reason I stuck with devices with flash, even if it was removable flash, after that.
