Hi!

Attached devices:
Host: scsi0 Channel: 00 Id: 00 Lun: 00
Vendor: Sandisk Model: ImageMate SDDR-0 Rev: 0208
Type: Direct-Access ANSI SCSI revision: 02
Host: scsi1 Channel: 00 Id: 02 Lun: 00
Vendor: Quantum Model: DLT4000 Rev: DA97

The SanDisk is actually a USB cardreader.

Kind regards, Angelo
