FreeBSD will not discover a = hard drive like this on a "hot swap" (just connecting the drive to the = bridge while plugged in via USB -- in fact that could kill your USB = bridge if you don't do it right - a risk in ANY hot swap attempt). >=20 > If you disconnect the USB, then connect a drive, then reconnect the = USB does it find your drive? >=20 > If so, that's your route.
