Another question to my original - I have always used SCSI on linux just
recently I started to use IDE. Can one use a removable drive bay, with a
key turn-off, and remove or turn-off the drive while linux is running?
I did this with SCSI and it worked fine.
The reason for this is backups. You turn on the drive, mount it, do a
backup, turn it off. You do not have to remove it though.
The IDE backup is on it's own controller, no slaves.
