/* Hardware */
Hardware expansion usually need drivers, which can be flexible added to an OS. In contrast to this one of the future goals of FutureOS is to provide a monolithik architecture, where all drivers are implemented in a hardcoded way, because the CPC only has few hardware expansions compared to a PC.
* '''Disc drives and hard discs:''' FutureOS supports up to eight drives and up to four hard-disc partitions. It buffers the directories read from any mass storage device in the expansion RAM.
* '''Plug and Play:''' If you connect a hardware expansion to a CPC, FutureOS will automatically detect that expansion, initialise it and make it accessible. The architecture of the OS allows you to add and remove hardware on purpose. An example: You add a trackball, you use it, then you connect and use a joystick and then you use a proportional mouse for example. You can turn external hardware in the configuration-bytes on or off (use ConfigOS utility).
