It's real, and it's a problem if you use FW400 drives from OSX to OS9 and back. I've had it almost once a week till I found the solution : keep the drives under OSX and don't ever power them under OS9 (I suppose the reverse is ok). If you loose Gigs with that you understand. It fucks up the directories big time. Then Diskwarrior and Drive10 are your friends. The fact Apple doesn't aknowledge it doesn't mean it does not exists. the article comes from the TidBits guys, you can count on them they are not nutties.
