Security Update 2006-003 Special Report: SCSI drives not recognized

by CNET staff

In addition to issues mounting FireWire devices, some users are reporting SCSI hard drive connection issues after Security Update 2006-003.

MacFixIt reader Al Hinds writes:

"I lost my SCSI drives after installing the Security Update 2006-003. Reinstalled OS X 10.4.6 using the combined installer - works fine.

"Running a G3 Blue and White Server with: Apple Adaptec ADPT,3950U2B SCSI Adapter (Unsupported) (2) SEAGATE 50GB ULTRA2 SCSI Drives ST150176LW (Data Drives)."

As mentioned by Al, re-applying the most recent Mac OS X combination updater (available from Apple's download page) is the most common solution to this problem.
