What is Hot Plug Function?
If the SATA2 / SATA3 HDDs are NOT set for RAID configuration, it is called
“Hot Plug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA2 / SATA3 HDDs
while the system is still power-on and in working condition.
However, please note that it cannot perform Hot Plug if the OS has been
installed into the SATA2 / SATA3 HDD.
