Not quite...
I recognized the enclosure's limitation when I first tried to partition the HD.
However, the key portion is that the HD performance was considerably degraded
after partitioning and formatting it within that limitation.
After that experience, I would not recommend anyone try to use a larger capacity
HD, formatted for the lower capacity in systems that don't support 48-bit LBA.

You failed to see the limtitation in your case. It was the enclosure's USB
bios for IDE capacity, not anything else.
I just tried to partition & format a 300 GB HD in my USB external enclosure
(which doesn't support 48-bit LBA). Not only would it only go to the 137 GB
total, but access was significantly slower than the old HD.
I took it out of the enclosure and repartitioned/reformatted it using a
temporary internal IDE connection. That was successful, and performance is
now back to what I expected.
