This is nothing new.  Strange things used to happen to me in SHRConvert (all I
had was one 3.5" drive) unless I made sure that things happened in the right
order.  It wasn't really repeatable (I wasn't sure if I should blame my drive,
the SFTools, or what, and it only happened in SHRConvert...), so I never sent
it in to Apple.
