I can confirm that 120 GB disk works well in both Ultra 5 and Ultra 10.
Disks larger than 137 GB are most likely not supported (because of ATA-66
limitations). On the other hand, extern controllers (like SIL0680 in my
case) works quite well, the only limitation is that OpenProm cannot boot
from disks at this controllers.
