These are all SWP (South-Western Products, not to be confused with SWTPC) RAMDISK / 8088 MS-DOS adapter boards. Designed for various CP/M machines of the day, these commonly found their way into Kaypro machines, with Zorba machines being a distant second of sorts.

These are designed to sit on top of the drive stack, plug into the CPU port (the Z80 was pulled and placed on an adapter board) and some special software twiddling gave you a 256k - 1MB RAMDISK (depending on the model) or a MS-DOS mostly-compatible machine that used the host as a terminal.

These were purchased in 2013 and had some of the "missing link" software with them which has now been entered into various archives. The boards themselves are of unknown status, but are being kept around as spares for my working unit. The boards themselves date to the 1984/5 time period.
