Default Largest Hard Drive for IC7-G Max II Advance?

Does anyone know the largest IDE hard disk supported on the IC7-G
Max II Advance?

Same question for an SATA (non-RAID) drive on this motherboard?

Same question for USB. In fact, what determines the largest USB
hard disk one can use on a motherboard?

Thanks!

I don't think, as a general rule, that it's the mobo which limits
this, but the op/sys and file system being used.

That makes sense for USB, but is it also true for IDE and SATA
drives? I seem to remember reading about a 500GB limit on the
IC7-G, but I don't remember which interface they were talking
about.

Methinks the same applies, but I don't know that specific mobo.
An e-mail to the ABIT tech support would help but they might
have evaporated by now!
