Default Largest HD in an E420R?

Just curious what is the largest hard drive (doesn't have to be Sun)
can a E420R handle?

I would like to get a couple 74GB or maybe even 147GB hard drives if
possible.

Anyone have any experience using 3rd party large drives (>36.4GB) in
the E420R and if so, what brand/model did you use?

Thanks!

I think you can use up to the latest 300GB drive if you like, SCSI is
very good in compatibility.

I'm using 73GB and 137GB 3rd party Seagate disks in a E150 running
Sol 2.6 with no problems.
