so you can't have 100 partitions of 4gb size on a single 400gb hard drive?

No, as stated the 4GB limitation is PER HD. And the other important limitation to remember is 2GB limitation per partition.

That means you can have practically as many partitions as you want on HD until they are all smaller than 2GB each and total usage of the HD will be under 4GB.
