.Nah, it's not Apple's fault. All SCSI devices on a chain must be on.
.That includes your external drive, since it's connected.

Bull.  I have a Jasmine DD70 connected with the original Jasmine cable
and the terminator resistors left in.  My SE/30 boots fine with the drive
on OR off.  Once the SE/30 is on, I can change my mind and turn on the DD70,
restart the SE/30 and it too will mount.  To turn it off I suppose I should
Shutdown, turn it off and click restart.  It works as expected, no hastle
