Upper Limit On HDD Capacity For QS G4 2001 Model W/PCI ATA133 Card?

Hey Everyone,

I currently have a Tempo ATA133 PCI card installed in my QuickSilver G4 2001 system ( http://www.sonnettech.com/product/tempo_ata133.html). To address capacity issues, I'm considering adding a very large 500 GB, 7200 RPM ATA133 Hitatchi HDD ( http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822147008), which would connect to this PCI card.

Does anyone have reason to believe this configuration would cause issues, or if there's an upper limit on the amount of HDD space a PCI ATA133 card can support?

My feelings are that this configuration will be fine, but I'd like feedback before I proceed.

Power Mac G4 QuickSilver (M8360LL/A), Mac OS X (10.4), 2 GHz Processor Upgrade (Giga Designs), 1.5 GB RAM, 4 Internal HDDs
