The Solidisk SWR256 is a RAM/ROM board for the BBC Microcomputer. The board can take 4 sideways ROMs (anything from 8k to 64K chips) and has 256K RAM (8 x HM50256P-12). The board fits into the BBC Microcomputer's 6502 socket and the 6502 is relocated onto the SWR256 board.

The Solidisk SWR256 is also a component of the Solidisk Office System, which bundled a printer, disc drive, DFS, Wordwise Plus ROM and SWR256, and was designed to compete with the Amstrad PCW8256.
