EBM XR-10 Chip-Rack Deck Extension

Euro Business Machines XR-10 Chip-Rack Extension is the size of a scientific-function pocket calculator, this after-market deck upgrade plugs into any available Input/Output (option) port on most cyberdeck models, effectively providing an additional 10MU to maximum capacity. This option does not add memory in the traditional fashion of simply tacking on an extra memory core, but rather by linking ten micro-condensed RAM data cores with an ingenious "shuffling" system that allows floating memory substitutions. In game terms. if a program is loaded into an XR-10 is activated. the host-deck ignores an equal amount of program space in its own memory and runs the selected program and then returns to normal operation (The Netrunner decides the memory to be overridden).

The unusual operation of this system has the benefit of isolating inactive programming from the host-deck. protecting it from any damage that the deck may sustain. This includes the effects of interface killers such as Poison Flatline and Firestarter. Normal deck memory is not protected by this system.
