an external hard disc is not recognized when connected during

Furthermore, the hard disc that is connected to eSATA must not
be disconnect during running operation since this may cause data
loss.
• It depends on both, the SATA controller and also the drivers
whether the plugging in and unplugging is possible during
operation. Due to the multitude of main boards, controllers and
drivers, we recommend for safety reasons to always connect and
disconnect an external eSATA device when the computer is
turned off. Disposal of the unserviceable product according to the
relevant statutory regulations.
