I've been looking at a few external drive caddies, but the cheap ones
mention that they can take up to 400GB hard drive. Why the limit? Doesn't
seem right to me - surely a SATA controller (internal or external) could
manage any current size of SATA driver?

I'd like to know the same thing. I've seen a variety of enclosures
that have limits that don't correspond to standards issues. And
never an explanation of why.
