Q: unable to partition external hard drive in disk utility
on El Capitan disk utility does not allow partitioning of a new external hard drive.
When will this be fixed? Is there a work around.
With I TB seagate disk, and I cannot partition? That is not helpful.

Sure it does.
Select the drive:
Set how many partitions:
Click on the Add [+] button once for each partition you want to add. You can set the size using the Size field.
Before you start complaining about something, it would be wise to get your facts straight.
