External Hdd Partition Or Not?

I have just got a 160gig LaCie extreme HDD. I am going to use it only for audio I have not got anything on it yet and I am wondering if it would be a good idea to partition it into say 3 partitions. 1)protools projects 2)sample library 3)iTunes Library or some other partitions.
Does anyone use Garritan personal orchestra sample libraries? I was wondering if I move it from my computer HDD to my external HDD will I need to have the program on the same drive or will the program find the library on the external HDD?

Thanks again

New Mac G5, Advice Needed Re: Partition And Ext Hd

Hi

I have returned to Mac after ten years in the Wintel camp. In a couple of days I take delivery of a Power Mac 1.8Ghz single processor with 1gb of RAM and 80gb hard drive. I will be using a digidesign MBox with protools LE and Sibelius. Can anyone help in regards to setting up the hard drive with partitions or if that is even necessary. Also I need advice on a fast but not too expensive external hard drive and flat screen.

Thanks in anticipation
