Storage Devices Hot Swapping(儲存設備熱交換)

When desktops were originally developed, they weren’t designed to allow for hot-swapping of devices. Hot-swapping is the act of adding or removing a device while the computer is still turned on. In the old days, the user would shut the system down, power the workstation off, then connect the device, and turn the machine back on, otherwise the computer wouldn’t recognize the new device. In the late 1990s, the Windows operating system began to allow hot-swapping of devices, which included USB and FireWire. This allowed the user to simply plug in a device, wait a few seconds, and then begin using it to store or retrieve data. Due to this hot-swapping, it is important that users use the “eject drive safely” feature in Windows before unplugging a device, otherwise data loss will occur. SATA eSATA also support hot-swapping, but only if AHCI (advanced host controller interface) is selected during configuration in the BIOS. If not, the drive will work as if it is an older PATA IDE device and will not support hot-swapping.

最初開發台式機時，它們的設計不允許熱插拔設備。熱交換是在計算機仍打開時添加或刪除設備的操作。在過去，用戶會關閉系統，關閉工作站電源，然後連接設備，然後重新啟動計算機，否則計算機將無法識別新設備。在1990年代後期，Windows操作系統開始允許熱插拔設備，包括USB和FireWire。這使用戶可以簡單地插入設備，等待幾秒鐘，然後開始使用它來存儲或檢索數據。由於這種熱交換，在拔出設備電源之前，用戶必須在Windows中使用“安全彈出驅動器”功能，這一點很重要，否則會導致數據丟失。SATA eSATA也支持熱插拔，但前提是在BIOS中配置期間選擇了AHCI（高級主機控制器接口）。否則，驅動器將像舊的PATA IDE設備一樣工作，並且不支持熱插拔。
