Default hot swap drives on osx

How do you guys deal with your kingston removables on osx? When I open drive utility
it sees the drives and I can mount and unmount any particular drive. When I unmount a drive and plug in another drive, there is no way to rescan the bus so the new drive will not show up. How is everybody else dealling with this?

As far as I know there is no way to mount removable scsi drives in OSX. You have to restart with the desired drive already powered up. ATTO is supposed to be working on a utility. I have an Avid media dock on my rig and find this to be pretty lame.

No can do at the moment. You have to re-boot to bring up new drives on SCSI. PITA I know.
