It isn't clear what you are really asking. Do you want to know about
inbound concurrent connection limits? Or how many physical hard drives
XP Home will recognize?

For the first item, see here:

http://support.microsoft.com/?id=314882

10 for XP Pro/Tablet/MCE
5 for XP Home
49 for SBS 2000
74 for SBS 2003
Unlimited for full Server O/Ses

For the second item, I really don't know. I suppose you could stuff 4 or
6 hard drives in a computer without the operating system caring. The
limitations would be more hardware-related as in needing proper
cooling.

If this isn't what you wanted to know, please clarify your question. See
