Don't mean to be picky, but sca SCSI drives are hot swappable, by
themselves but as a backup medium they'd be a tad expensive!

The only options for IDE are to either buy an IDE raid controller, which
tricks the OS into thinking the drive is still there when it fails (is
unplugged) or turn the machine off.  One of the Promise Raid controllers
can do this trick under Windows and Linux..

Cheers, Me.
