Hmm. The problem is that it doesn't get a new entry. What I do is: I disconnect the USB IDE case, and replace the disk inside it with a different disk. When I connect it again it detects it's been conected, but doesn't add a new scsi entry, I still see an old QUANTUM drive there, and it should be IBM.
