Well, I have seen where Intel claims that it is hotswappable. But, I don't see the drive in the "Safely Remove" options when it is plugged in. I use this drive as my backup drive so corruption is not really an option. The drive is a 500gb Seagate Perp in a Antec MX-1 enclosure with Esata.
My questions are:
1. Is there any way to enable Safe Remove for the ICH8R chipset or has anyone else used it this way?
2. If I disable the drive in the device manager will that turn off the write cache and allow for a safe unplug?
Thanks guys!!
