There is a ~137Gb limit on what you can use of a ATA/EIDE hard disk without

But will a G4/AGP (with builtin firewire) 10.3.4 be able to see and use all
of a 250 Gb firewire400 connected disk?
This is dependent on the adapter in the FW case. If it came this way from the manufacturer, yes, if you're stuffing a 250 Gb drive into a FW case yourself, maybe, maybe not.
Will a G3MT 9.2.2 (with USB 1.1 card) be able to see and use the same external drive through the drive's USB connector?
Again, this is dependent on the adapter, but if the FW works this should work. The 137 Gb limit is in the IDE firmware, not the OS.
