Shimano Rapid Rise RD is the type that sits on the outside (small cog) and moves inward under tension ?

Or am I wrong and Rapid Rise sits on the inside (large cog) and moves out to the smaller cog under tension...

Thanks !

Rapid rise mech sits on the large (easy) cog. Additional cable tension moves it onto the smaller (harder) cogs.
