I have no idea what the limit might be.  My CPM machine has an option for a
10 Mb hard drive and has a single built-in 1Mb floppy. Not 1.2Mb. Not 720kb.
The commonest CPM boxes when this thing was new were Osbourne and Northstar.

The Osbourne may have used 160k drives. I had a Northstar with two 72k (80)
5 1/4 " drives.

Nope. BBSs tho.<g>
