Yes and no.... If you partition the drive on you //e, then you are stuck w/ a 
max of (4) partitions of 32 Meg each.

If you have a friend w/ a IIgs, they can partition the drive w/ > 4 partitions 
(still 32 Meg max in size) and if you are running ProDOS-8 v2+ you will be 
able to access them [up to 13; less any floppy drives in your system].

I'm am working on modifing Apple's HS SCSI Partitioning software to allow the 
creation of more then (4) partitions on a single SCSI drive.  Unfortunately, 
work is not allowing me to have much time to work on the modifications :(

Stay tuned..
