    There isn't a specific number of virtual machines. It may be more related to bandwidth. You can also check here and with hardware manufacturer about support for the hardware.

    Hi there,

    Each virtual machine can have a maximum of two IDE controllers, four SCSI controllers, four SATA controllers, and four NVMe controllers. The default controller is number 0, for each type of controller. When you create a virtual machine, the first hard disk is assigned to the default controller 0 .

    You can try contacting the Realtek to get the exact number based upon their hardware schematic.
