Hot swapping IDE HDDs trouble.
I have an IDE drive set up, like, its a drive, or tray, that I slide out and pop in a IDE HDD and put in, and reboot my PC, do whatever on it, then reboot, pop another one in, etc. Well, I dont want to reboot, and found out that it apparently is possible to hot swap them, without reboot. I have an internal SATA drive, its my main HDD, but for some reason its on a slave position, or a secondary master. There's only one IDE port. What configuration would I have to have my HDD (SATA) in, to be able to hot swap my IDE HDD, and what would I have to do, settings-wise, maybe software? Thanks alot, ANY help is greatly appreciated :)
