storage chassis such as the Addonics family of Storage Tower. Together with Addonics Port Multiplier, you can 

create a powerful RAID storage with large storage capacity, drive redundancy for reliability and high performance 

in a compact 3-bay drive enclosure like the Addonics Storage Tower III.

(1) Serial ATA hot swap feature works only with controllers basing on Silicon Image chip set from our inhouse testing. Other 

controllers that are not Silicon Image based may not support hot swap. You may consider adding one of the Addonics Serial ATA 

host controllers to your systems to ensure the hot swap capability. New controllers from Intel and other suppliers may finally 

support this feature. Please verify with your controller manufacturer if you need to have hot swap in your application. Hot swap 

is supported in Windows 2000 and XP only. On other OS, drive can be removed without crashing system. But replacing with a 

different drive can result in crashing the OS.
