What types/brands of IDE hard drive controllers are recommended for use with FC2?

I have a large capacity drive (80GB), but my system BIOS will only handle 32 GB. I was planning on buying a controller card, but I wanted to know which ones are supported by Fedora with the lease amount of frustration for me.

Thanks

Still broken in 2.6.8 and above.

I don't recall seeing an official Fedora HCL anywhere. You'd have to assume that if an IDE controller is on the Redhat 9 HCL it would be compatible. Here's a couple of links for you.

Promise 133 TX2 works great. No problems. No configuring needed for FC2
