S10 does not support SATA hot swap unless they are SATA drives behind
a SAS controller.
Gack!
I don't want to sound *too* pissy about this, but I'd be a lot happier
if somebody had thought to mention this when I was first asking about
issues I'd face building a home disk server on an SATA hot-swap box.
Because now I've invested $2k in this box that apparently can't really
do what I want, at least yet.
Buy a SAS controller. Of course that's more money down the hole if it
doesn't work out for you.
