Shouldn't cause any problems. I've had a 250Gb drive as a boot drive in this machine for a couple of years without any problems.

That's not necessarily an answer to the question -- if there is a 128Gb restriction, but your bootloader happens to be in the first 128Gb of your partition, you'd never notice anything wrong. That is, until your kernel got a hotfix or something and was re-allocated somewhere else on the partition. It's still more reliable IMO to arrange for the boot partition to be entirely within the first 128Gb.
