Head crashes due to lost power haven't been a concern for years.  The heads are retracted by a spring in milliseconds and the air-cushion provided by drive spin-down keeps the heads off the platters.  If you stay within the rated g-load while yanking the drive, you are fine.  Preparing for hot-swap alerts the OS and chipset that a drive is gonna go missing, hopefully to avoid crashing your toast monitoring app.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[RocketTech]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 7th 2009 2:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on NewerTech's Voyager Q converts SATA HDDs into hot-swappable external drives]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/newertechs-voyager-q-converts-sata-hdds-into-hot-swappable-exte/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/07/newertechs-voyager-q-converts-sata-hdds-into-hot-swappable-exte/</guid><description><![CDATA[Thanks Engadget, I recently purchased the original Voyager, and still can return it to get this (OWC has a 30 day exchange policy).
