I recently read about someone successfully make two Mac share one SCSI
hard drive without any partition.

He also said that by partitioning the hard drive, he was able to 
make a AppleIIGS(ProDOS) use one partition while the Mac use the other
partition on the same drive without any problem. (he didn't mention IBM)

My problem is, how is this possible, why would the drive allow that?
Will this damage the hardware?

Appreciate any response!
