Felix, thank you for the (very) prompt reply. It didn't quite work, for me.
wheezy2:/home/ron# lsscsi bash: lsscsi: command not found wheezy2:/home/ron# lsusb Bus 001 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0002 Linux Foundation 2.0 root hub Bus 002 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 003 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 004 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 005 Device 001: ID 1d6b:0001 Linux Foundation 1.1 root hub Bus 001 Device 004: ID 0781:a7c1 SanDisk Corp.As you see, lsscsi does not seem to exist on his machine.

Another reply suggested using dmesg output, which I'll try now - and reply to in a moment.
Regards, Ron
