Try using SCSIProbe (shareware) to detect the hard drive. Another thing to consider is that maybe the hard drive's disk driver is corrupted or missing. You can use Apple HD SC Setup v7.3.5 (Patched) or Lido v7.5.6 to detect and install/update the hard drive's driver, so it can be recognized again.
I've never heard of Disinfectant causing the hard drive to be unrecognized. It could be possible, but I doubt it. Besides, Macs don't need anti virus apps.
I can only recommend one critical anti virus app you will want to have, called Ajax. The reason is because I've noticed that software downloaded from the internet for Macs (before OS X) did have an infection. After downloading and expending a compressed file (.sit, .hqx, .sea, .img, .dsk, etc.), the infection doesn't appear to do nothing, other than place a file named []666 in every file folder. If left unattended for long periods, that file will cause some major corruption of data and possibly loss. Not to scare you, but it happened to me 2 times before I tried Ajax; it fixed the problem good.
The worse case scenario is that the SCSI controller chip (UI12) on the SE/30 logic board went south. Not uncommon, but pretty frustrating, when you want to use a SCSI drive. The chip is a 53C80 (Zilog or NCR brand) PLCC-44 pin and a real pain to replace. I've tried it once before and will never do it again, since I don't have the proper tools for the job. Digikey and Mouser both carry the part, but you'll end up buying in bulk amounts at about $6 USD apiece. You'd be better off salvaging one from a dead board with a good replacement 53C80; much cheaper and no buying in bulk.
I hope this can be of use to you. Keep me posted on what you try and find. Document as best as you can with what works for you!
