i have a g4 533 w/10.3.9
the icons for my external firewire drives disappeared/went offline
today twice.
i rebooted the first time and got them back, but aobut 2 hours
later they disappeared again
and i rebooted again, but they are not showing up.
....and disk utility doesn't see them.
Bad firewire cable, loose connections? failing drive enclosure? I had
a cat once who thought computer cables were the greatest chew toy on
earth...I've got an old SCSI cable that looks like it was used as a
voodoo doll.
Does it say anything in the console or system log at the times these
drives are disappearing?
