It's a long shot, but I just installed a 120GB drive too, and it had a series of jumper options (Master, Slave, Other one), and then another series of jumper options that did the same, but restricted the size to 32GB. I presume for old legacy machines that have problems.
Anyway, you might just have the thing set to 32GB. To fix it, it was more than just moving the jumper, I had to repartition in a different way (repartitioning the same way led to no change). This was under linux though, so the Mac may not try to be clever about the repartition.
