[Gslug-general] hot-swap Sata on desktop computers

[Ahmed Osman]

Has anyone had experience with hot-swap sata in linux? I got a enclosure
that comes with a docking bay, and the bay works by running a sata cable
straight to the board, so the enclosure itself has the sata connections on
the back. So it should work by simply sliding the enclosure into the docking
bay and having it work.The first time I tried it, everything worked. However
now when I dock it, nothing appears in dmesg about hardware detection (is
this even the spot to check?). If I power off the system then power it on,
it's detected, but doing a hot-plug doesn't work.
