There is one internal disk and one internal CDROM, and I usually plug an external disk. I would like to know if it is possible to switch on and off the external disk while the system is running. I ask this question because I would like to add an internal hard disk within an extractible thing (I don't know how to call that in english) in order to replace the external big box I have to carry with me.
