Modules, even batteries, if using AC, can be inserted and removed while the machine is "live." >Also, will I need to shut down to add or remove external keyboard or mouse? Hmm. Not sure of the "official" advice, but the ADB and serial ports on other Macs generally carry the "warning" to shut down before connecting or disconnecting. Ken P.S. Just checked the User Manual. No mention of turning off for Printers. Shut down of sleep for modems. WARNING When connecting SCSI equipment, always turn off power to all devices in the chain, including your computer. If you don�t, you could lose information and damage your equipment. IMPORTANT You must shut down the computer or put it in sleep before connecting an ADB device.
