I am able to power up the drive (with the cable connected first) and after a few seconds the partitions mount with no problem. It is not necessary for me to do this before the S900 is booted. To turn off the drive, I trash the volumes and then turn it off. I have not hot-plugged the drive - but I would connect the drive without it powered up. Mine stays connected to the firewire port. -- SuperMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
