Well... I thought I was... <sheepish grin>
I started fiddling with the drive I have last night, and noticed that
it had a very IDE-like connector. No problem, I don't know much about
SCSI anyway, and for all I know they have the same exact connector
type. So I booted up the system and started snooping around. It
turns out its SATA. I had thought it was SCSI because a) it's a fancy
system and very nice, and the drive was in /dev as sda.
So it's not SCSI, and furthermore it was somehow partitioned during
install with 3 10GB partitions in addition to the 6GB partition I
thought I had. I swear I don't know how that happened.
But I don't need the drive now. Thank you all for the offers.
