How many partitions does SCSI support?
SCSI does not care about partitions. This is only the protocol used to interface with the harddisk. There is probably a practical limit to the possible number of partitions on your SCSI drive. This is limited by its size mostly. Normal limitations on partitions is something like 3 Primary partitions and one extended of which can contain more logical partitions. However not being 100% sure about limitations I find it logical to be about 127 or 255. In any case more than what is practical for most uses. It is greatly dependent upon which operatingsystem you use. A partition is only controlled via software or even software in hardware. Designing software for it, and you can easily have thousands of "partitions". it is like having a book. If you write the book yourselves, you decide how many chapters this book will consist of. You decide the size of each chapter.
Why might you use the Extend Disk Partition option?
Typically you can only have 4 primary partitions per hard drive if you are using the MBR partition layout scheme. If you need more partitions than the maximum allowed (4), then there is a way to get many more partitions with only one hard drive.By creating an extended partition you can have as many logical partitions as you need within that extended partition, thus you can have more than only four partitions. You can have 3 primary partitions and one extended partition (for a total of 4), and inside the extended partition you can have as many logical partitions as you need.The one thing to keep in mind is that any type of Windows Operating System needs to be installed in a primary partition, otherwise you cannot boot into it. Windows XP in particular, needs to be installed in the first primary partition. For everything else, you can create as many logical partitions as you want inside the extended partition.

It's like putting a brick wall in the middle of a football field. :-P This is depend on your disk style, if your disk is MBR, you could only create four primary partitions or three primary partitions with one Extended partition (you could create many logical partition under extended partition) at most If your disk style is GPT, you could create as many as you can. here is an article about how to make partition from http://www.partition-magic-windows7.com/res/create-partition-windows7.html
