Nothing happens; Apple System Profiler shows the USB/FireWire devices,
but not as volumes.

From my experience it seems like it should work. I was shocked to discover that an old SCSI Syquest drive I had laying around works in X after installing a SCSI card in my G4. I didn't have to install any software for it to be recognized, other than the driver for the SCSI card. Now if only I could get my SCSI Orb drive to work in X.
