Connect the drive to the computer via one of its in-
terfaces and turn on the drive by pressing the blue
button.
Go to the Menu Bar, and open Go.
From the Go menu, click on Applications.
In the Applications menu, open the Utilities folder,
and then double-click Disk Utility from the Utilities
folder.
The Disk Utility window will open. In the left side
of the window will be a list of the available hard disk
drives. You should see a volume that represents your
internal hard drive, and one labeled LaCie Hard
Drive.
From the Volume Scheme: button, choose the num-
ber of partitions you want to divide the drive into by
clicking on the pull down menu starting with Cur-
rent (Mac OS 10.x gives you the option of dividing
the drive into at most 8 partitions). You can custom-
ize the size of the partitions by using the slide bar
between the partitions in the Volume Scheme: area.
In the Volume Information section, create a name
for each partition, choose the volume format (Mac
OS Extended, Mac OS Standard or UNIX File Sys-
tem) and the volume size.
Once you have finalized the volume format, number
of partitions, size and options, click OK. The follow-
ing message will appear: Warning! Saving the new
volume will erase all existing volumes. This can
NOT be undone. Are you sure you want to do that?
Click Partition to continue.
Mac OS 10.x will automatically setup the disk with
the partitions and volume format you selected, and
your new drive will be available for use.

Apple recom-
mends that unless you have a specific reason
to use the UNIX File System (UFS), you
should use the Mac OS Extended format
since it provides a more familiar experience to
Macintosh users.
