- When you fire up the external hard drive, it takes some time before it can be
- registered on the SCSI bus. In the meantime, you internal hard drive has done
- its thing and has failed to recognize the external. On the re-boot, you've
- now allowed enough time to go by for the external to send out it's "I'm here"
- message, so you see the drive.
- As for solutions, definitely the best fix is the program SCSI-Probe which can
- be set up to go out to the SCSI bus during the boot and to locate - and mount
- - any SCSI devices it finds.
