there is no standard specification for cpc hardware expansions. it's even worser than for PC hardware, so this sentence is senseless
== Hardware ==
The OS supports many of the hardware available for the CPC. One Like for every operating system one of the ambitions of FutureOS is to support all hardware available,<br>. Hardware expansions usually need drivers that can be flexibly added to an OS. Contrary to this approach, a goal of FutureOS is to provide a monolithic architecture where all drivers are implemented in a hardcoded way. This is possible since the CPC has clearly defined hardware expansions compared to other platforms.
*''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 a hardware expansion is connected to the CPC FutureOS will '''automatically detect''' that expansion, initialise it and make it available to the user. The architecture of the OS allows you to add and remove hardware on purpose. The user can switch external hardware on or off in the configuration bytes (use ConfigOS utility).
