HOT SWAP

Hot Swap here refers to HDD Hard Disk (Hard Disk Hot Swap), not True Hot
Swap.
The eSATA/USB 2.0 model supports HDD Hot Swap in JBOD or Mirror.
However, since it refers to Hard Disk Hot Swap, it is not recommended to
perform Hot Swapping when the HDD is transferring data. When one HDD is Hot
Swapped, the system will reset while interrupting data transfer and causing data
loss.
HDD Hot Swap (Hard Disk Hot Swap) refers to the ability to add or remove
a device from the host computer without powering off the device; the system
automatically recognizes the change after the hot swapping is done. True Hot
Swap refers to the ability to add or remove a device from the host computer
when the data is still accessing.
