It is true that SATA standards allow for hot swapping external SATA hard drives, however some motherboard manufacturers may not have included support for all of the SATA standards on the first release of their products. If you are experiencing problems when trying to hot swap your Aegis Desktop, check with your motherboard manufacturer for a bios update or a SATA controller patch to fix the problem.
