A zip drive works more like a floppy and has a disk change sensor in the mechanism. Flash media drives don't work in quite the same way.
I am just going by my experience.... Hot swap of flash type media have given me corrupted catalog / HD errors .. happened to me on different drives on different Emaxes....On Tue, Jul 8, 2014 at 9:02 AM, xeelox@... [emax] <emax@yahoogroups.com> wrote:

Interesting. Is this true for any drive connected to the scsi chain or just the boot drive can't be hot swapped?I don't own a Zip drive but I was under the impression you could swap one of those disks w/o powering down. Is that not true?Thanks,Jim
