Josh, "True SCSI" partitioning is basically partitioning that occurs when you initialize the drive for partitions, as opposed to a "standard" drive. Other partitioning schemes involve the creation of an invisible file at the root level of one's hard disk and via the particular software's INIT or DA that allows the Mac OS to treat this file just like any other volume.
