AFAIK it's a hardware limit with the x86 MoBo designs

...

I know that the SCSI limitation was mainly due to, er.. poor design of
the SCSI system in 2.2. (part of the reason behind The Great SCSI
Rewrite of 2.4)  I don't know how close this is to being rectified,
though.

But is the IDE limitation in the kernel, or a hardware limit?
