P43DE3 supports Hot Plug function for SATA / SATAII Devices in AHCI mode. Intel

ICH10 south bridge chipset provides hardware support for Advanced Host controller

Interface (AHCI), a new programming interface for SATA host controllers developed thru

a joint industry effort.

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.
