As with hard disks, configuring more disks than are supported by your VM's
storage controller arrangement will result in a Vagrant error.

## How many disks can I attach?
Vagrant attaches all new disks defined to a guests SATA Controller. As of VirtualBox 6.1.x,
SATA Controllers can only support up to **30 disks** per guest. Therefore if you try
to define and attach more than 30, it will result in an error. This number _includes_
the primary disk for the guest.
Vagrant attaches all new disks defined to guest's primary controller. As of
VirtualBox 6.1.x, storage controllers have the following limits to the number
of disks that are supported per guest:
- IDE Controllers: 4
- SATA Controllers: 30
- SCSI Controllers: 16
Therefore if your primary disk is attached to a SATA Controller and you try to
define and attach more than 30, it will result in an error. This number
_includes_ the primary disk for the guest.
DVD attachments are subject to the same limits. Optical disk attachments will
be attached to the storage controller with the highest boot priority (usually
the IDE controller).

When new disks are defined to be attached to a guest, Vagrant will attach
disks to a particular storage controller based on the type of disk configured:
- For the `:disk` type, Vagrant will attach the disk to a guest's SATA
controller. It will also create the disk if necessary.
- For the `:dvd` type, Vagrant will attach the disk to a guest's IDE
- For the `:disk` type, Vagrant will use the storage controller containing the
boot disk. It will also create the disk if necessary.
- For the `:dvd` type, Vagrant will attach the disk to the storage controller
that comes earliest in the machine's boot order. For example, if a VM has a
SATA controller and an IDE controller, the disk will be attached to the IDE
controller.
Vagrant will not be able to configure disks of a given type if the associated
