"Hot swap" does not work

sfleury · 13 Oct 2018

Hello
I built a new PC with Windows 10 - 64 Bits
For the hard drives, I use "extractable racks", so I could change the data disks when needed (thats what I hoed, as it worked fine on the previous Windows 7 PC)
But, it seems this does not work
If I boot the system with some choosen disks, it works fine, but when I remove some of them and replace them with different disks, they are not recognized

In order to get access to the "new" disks, i have to close the system, change the disks and reboot

Is that normal ? Did I forget to tweak some parameters ?

Thanks for any help Have a good day

Access the BIOS then set the option to enable Hot Swap on the Sata port connected to the removable rack.

Hi,
Not sure if it applies here but win-10 does auto mount disks/ drives...
So if you haven't changed that I ran across @Brinks tutorial a little while back
Enable or Disable Automount of New Disks and Drives in Windows | Windows 10 Tutorials
