Yes it can be as big as you want but HDadvance 2.0 will not recognise anything over 200gb. Im not sure what the size limits are for the new HDadvance 3.

I thought I read somewhere that HD Loader and HD Advance will not recognize anything anything over 130 or similiar. something to do with "48 bits" recognition or something....
