About this document
Understanding SATA Hot-Swapping by Joe O Shea Renovator is a document available to read on EtoBox.
SATA standards were developed by a consortium led by Intel to use serial data transmission instead of parallel. SATA interfaces support hot-swapping, allowing drives to be connected or disconnected while the system is running. For servers using RAID 5, hot-swappable drives can be useful to replace drives without powering down, though they cost more. ExpressCard slots support hot-plugging and swapping of cards while the system is on.
