What is the underlying cause that prevented hard drives from breaking the 137 gb size barrier until the ataatapi-6 standard was released?

The limitation was caused by the fact that the hard drive, the system BIOS, and the OS used 28 bits to communicate addresses to the data on the drive. The newer ATA/ATAI-6 allows 48 bits for the address, increasing the addressable space on the hard drive up to 144 petabytes.
