Hi Sam,
It doesn't matter what your devices are called. In fact you are best
advised to avoid use of the /dev/sd* names where possible as these
names may change for reasons other than drives being hotplugged. For
example if your storage controller needs a module to detect drives,
then order of mod

Hi,
I recently upgraded my home server to an HP ml30 tower server. It came
with a 4 drive hotplug SATA cage. I loaded two old unused drives in it
and installed Debian Stretch on it putting the drives in a software
raid1 via the debian installer. My plan was once I got the new box up

That's true to some extent, yes. Device naming is (and always was) the
same, for example.

hi,
I'm using squeeze, and I want to hutplug an sata device.
Someone said to me that sata and scsi is the same in linux.
I searched the web, the way of hot plug for scsi is echo an string to
/proc/scsi/scsi.
But there does not exist that file in my filesystem.
So, now I wander who can I do hotpl

AFAIk eSata can be unplugged safely in terms of electrical issues (i.e.,
you won't fry your drive). But of course, if you unplug while you stil

My question is this: Can anyone confirm that full SATA hotplug support is
