Your 40GB drive should work with any IDE card. They are easy cheesy to install. All the cards I have had are plug-n-play with no software needed.
The limit of 128GB is on most older cards but the ATA133 cards made now will see any size drives available. Get at least an ATA100 or 133 card and it will be usefull for a long time and can be used in your next Mac too. I've always had good luck with Sonnet products in my PowerComputing clones but there are several makers. eBay or the swaplist would be the places to look.
