Apparently, only if you're using HFS+ (MacOS 8.1).

Taken from Tidbits: 

+ **Compatibility Issues** -- Hard Disk ToolKit 2.5 and
+  Silverlining 5.8.2 both claim to be compatible with Mac OS 8.1 and
+  Extended Format volumes; Silverlining supports Extended Format
+  volumes directly.

Don't bother contacting the US LaCie support as they are unable to
provide you with the updated drivers (see below). Some months ago I
purchased a LaCie CD-R/HD bundle, and wanted the latest drivers. In the
end, someone sent me the LaCie Silverlining 5.8.2 by e-mail; not
strictly legal, but the Apple reseller wouldn't furnish me the driver
and neither would LaCie (US).
