But do you ever hot plug anything?
I have two USB/eSATA enclosures I use for an array of external harddisks (backups, work stuff, videos, so on). As I said, these enclosures have an eSata prot ans I did try this one with my main box. It sure _is_ faster, but I could not get it to be hotpluggable. Actually, my system would not see the harddisc if it was not in the enclosure (and turned on) at boot. So I reverted to USB, which lets me change the discs with little fuss (not exactly hotplug: unmount, turn off the enclosure (security), slide the new disc in, turn on, mount). If there is a way to hotplug eSata I have not found it. Thierry -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
