I am curious to know if there is an easy way to guess or identify
the device names of disks.
Have a look at the file /etc/path_to_inst. There you will find all
device instances managed by a particular driver. The first entry of
each line is the physical device.
If you then look in /dev/rdsk

Can anyone offer any suggestions on a way to predict the device naming, or at
least get the system to list the disks after I insert one without rebooting?
You have gotten some good responses that should help you out.

Thank you for all of the good pointers, everyone. croinfo and diskinfo
don't give me any output, but that's not surprising since this is a
home-built system. But it's good to know those utilities exist for
production hardware.
