2.11 Hot Plug and Hot Swap Functions for SATA3 HDDs

This motherboard supports Hot Plug and Hot Swap functions for SATA3 in RAID /

AHCI mode. The AMD SB950 chipset provides hardware support for Advanced Host

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

developed through a joint industry effort.

NOTE

What is Hot Plug Function?

If the SATA3 HDDs are NOT set for RAID conguration, it is called “Hot

Plug” for the action to insert and remove the SATA3 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 SATA3 HDD.

What is Hot Swap Function?

If SATA3 HDDs are built as RAID 1 or RAID 5 then it is called “Hot Swap”

for the action to insert and remove the SATA3 HDDs while the system is still

power-on and in working condition.
