Disconnecting and Reconnecting the Drive using eSATA
eSATA supports hot-swapping by design, however, this feature requires
proper support and setup at the host, device (drive), and operating-system
level. If not properly configured you may have to power off your computer and
the SoloPRO before disconnecting.
CAUTION!
To avoid data loss, make sure you shut down your computer before
turning off power to the drive. Do not move or disconnect the drive while it is
powered up.
The system should recognize the drive if it is reconnected and powered up
prior to powering up the host computer. If the drive is not recognized, restart
the computer. Always make sure the drive is placed on a stable surface before
reconnecting to the computer or turning on power to the drive.
