Most 1230 cards will allow for at least 32mb, some are picky with FPM/EDO RAM but there's no harm in trying.

Maximum supported with native OS3.1 is 4GB, with 3.9/BB2 or other filesystems you should at least be able to go to 127GB. :)

CD/CDRW can be used, for DVD you'll probably need a different IDE controller and even then software is virtually none existing.
