Hard disk storage considerations

The maximum available hard disk space is dependent on the size of your
hard drive and what version of DOS your PC is running. Up to a
maximum of 30 megabytes hard disk space can be available for Access
Manager data collection when using DOS 3.3. Newer versions of DOS
(for example, DOS 5.0) will allow for proportional storage space
depending on the size of the hard disk.
