32MB was a DOS limitation, i think. FAT12/FAT16 filesystem perhaps? DOS 3.0 days iirc.

- jaclaz 3y agoDos before 3.0 used FAT12, limited to 16 MB, DOS 3.0 introduced FAT16 (though in a reduced 14 bit version) that extended size to 32 MB, DOS 4.0 had "real" 16 bit FAT16: https://hardwaresecrets.com/hard-disk-drives-capacity-limits/ https://hardwaresecrets.com/hard-disk-drives-capacity-limits... These were limits to the partition/volume size, however.
