But only for drives attached to the built in IDE bus. If you use an ATA card such as the Acard 6280M, this limitation does not apply. I'm also pretty sure it does not apply, if one is using a big SCSI drive on the incredibly slow built-in SCSI bus.

"Incredibly slow" being the operative words here. Yes, you can use the SCSI interface for hard drives, but why when IDE drives are cheaper and probably a lot faster.
