==Addressing==
The [[IBM System/38]], and the [[IBM AS/400]] in its [[complex instruction set computer|CISC]] variants, use 48-bit addresses.
 
The address size used in [[logical block addressing]] was increased to 48 bits with the introduction of [[AT Attachment#ATA standards versions, transfer rates, and features|ATA-6]]. The [[Ext4]] file system physically limits the file block count to 48 bits.
