Hmmm, not quite. The sata drives in my icute caddy doesn't appear automatically as a removable drive (unfortunately). It appears as an internal drive so has to be mounted via fstab. I'd much prefer it was recognized as a removable drive that I can mount / umount regularly, but haven't figured out how to do that yet.
