This motherboard supports Hot Plug and Hot Swap functions for SATA / SATAII /

eSATAII Devices in RAID / AHCI mode. NVIDIA

GeForce 8200 chipset provides

hardware support for Advanced Host controller Interface (AHCI), a new programming

interface for SATA host controllers developed thru a joint industry effort. AHCI also

provides usability enhancements such as Hot Plug.

NOTE

What is Hot Plug Function?

If the SATA / SATAII HDDs are NOT set for RAID configuration, it is called

“Hot Plug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII 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 SATA / SATAII HDD.

What is Hot Swap Function?

If SATA / SATAII HDDs are built as RAID1 or RAID 5 then it is called “Hot

Swap” for the action to insert and remove the SATA / SATAII HDDs while

the system is still power-on and in working condition.

For K10N78-1394, eSATAII is equipped with Hot Plug capability that

enables you to exchange drives easily. For example, with eSATAII

interface, you may simply plug your eSATAII devices to the eSATAII ports

instead of opening your chassis to exchange your SATAII hard disk.
