At the beginning of the thread you state that SATA I suports hot-plugging/swapping while the Tom's hardware article states that it is a feature added to SATA II as well as the addition of the "staggered spin-up" with several drives. Just a little thing I had to point out, somone may want to confirm or reject this as I have only found it at this source.tom's hardware guide said:Additionally, SATA II also supports hot-plugging, which was not included in the previous version of the SATA standard. It also includes staggered spin-up of several drives, easing the burden on weaker power supplies by delaying the power draw of the drives as they spin up.

I know my source is from Tom's Hardware, but it is still considered to be fairly accurate for the most part.

1. What is the difference between SATA and SATA 150?
