OS 9 can work with large drives up to 2TB if you find a copy of MacOS ROM version 9.5 or later. The ROM file that came on the MDD's CD or an iMac/iBook G4 or other late version of the Classic System Folder is needed. That said, I've used a 500GB drive on a B&W with the MacOS ROM file that shipped with OS 9.2.2 without problems, but the drive was not full, so it's possible it might have failed when it got more than 200 GB of data.
