I'm using a 160gb disk in Sid right now without any hassles, on an old PII-350mhz/Intel-BX440 mobo.
Of course it only yields 157"Gi" due to the good old gigabyte vs
gibibyte chestnut, but it's certainly a deal better than 137"Gi".
[see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gibibyte for more info]
What kind of hardware are you using?
