SilverLining is great for making AU/X partitions, and it should have
no problem working with your drive.  The only downside is that it can
only be gotten directly from LaCie, and it costs $99.  Otherwise it's
a great and useful program -- it even supports resizable partitions,
and it comes with a DA to mount partitions at any time (if they're not
set to automount on bootup).
