      some reading about hot-swapping

      and to make an IDE hot swappable, buy a external case for the drive then you will be able to plug it into the computer through usb.

              Hot Swap means the device which we can connect & Remove in running pc that called hot swappable device.

              Internal device of PC can not be hot swappable so it is must recommended that if you want to connect any internal hardware in a PC than PC should be shut down

              Hot Swappable device Ex:- Pen Drive,Portable hard drive
