You don’t need to follow this hardware setup
sequence.
Hardware setup steps 1 through 4
are a good way to connect your new drive to your
computer, but you don’t always need to follow this
sequence. For example, if you want to attach your
drive after your computer has already booted, you
can simply connect the interface cable, turn on
power to the drive, and your OS automatically
detects and mounts the drive. This is known
as hot-plugging.
In a hot-plug situation, it’s a good idea to connect
all power and interface cables to your drive, and to
place the drive where you want it to remain, before
you turn it on. This helps ensure that you won’t
need to move your drive after it’s running.
