Hi All,
I have a removable drive sleeve that I mount SATA
drives mounted in that attaches to an internal SATA
port. I use it backup my system to removable
drives. The mechanism works identical to USB
flash drives.
With one exception. A drive MUST be in the
carriage when I boot up. Otherwise, if I insert
a drive AFTER the system is booted up, the drive
is invisible to the system.
Now I have seen Clonzilla re-educating the system
as to what drives are where. Is there a way to
goose Fedora to do the same? Is there
a way to rescan without having to reboot?
Many thanks,

Bit better, clearer description of the
hardware/caddie/connection you should have started with.
I thought
"attaches to an internal SATA port"
covered that.
https://www.supermicro.com/en/products/motherboard/X11SAE-M
It is attached to "I-SATA1"
So, it is purely all SATA (& not! e-sata) and no bridge
of any kind in-between
If so, if purely SATA, I'd suggest you check - if have
not done so yet- your mobo's BIOS for something like
SATA devices "hot-plugging"
Hot plug is enabled and is the default.

And to clarify - CloneZilla does the trick when boot up
independently of Fedora, as a live-iso, yes?
If so then it rather is - as you presumed I guess -
OS/software end.
Then I'd presume that your BIOS has:
- AHCI and not RAID
- ports Spin Up Device is "Enabled"
- also there is/should be "SATA Device Type"
I'd play - imagine you did too - with:
'signal-first-then-power' VS 'power-first-then-signal'
Other than that Fedora, Centos. which I mostly use which is
older&behind-Fedora, normally do not need much - I always
try not to forget to "enable" that in BIOS -> different
vendor might have different nomenclature for it: hot- plug
OR swap
I've only glanced at your 'poking' re/scan, I think it's
rather the host/controller you want to poke.
If you have not tried already:
echo "- - -" > /sys/class/scsi_host/host0/scan
(& port/connector might want to give/chose different)
