I've been hotswapping eSATA hard drives on my laptops for about 2 years now? If you're worried about messing stuff up you can make sure to click the thing on your taskbar to "eject" them first.

hobbesmaster posted:I must just have terrible luck with eSATA drivers... last time I tried hotswapping I just got a BSOD. For what it's worth, I've been doing it on my two Dell laptops, which both are eSATAp ports using an eSATAp enclosure for a drive. They're a Dell Studio 15 and a Dell XPS 15. I DO always go to the little "remove hardware/eject" icon on the taskbar first though.

I don't want to buy Nvidia's cloud gaming service next Tuesday, as it'd be horrendous with the residential bandwidth the US has Latency is unavoidable though. You can have all the bandwidth in the world but if the server's not close enough it's still going to be unacceptable.

Half Life 2 impressed me less itself than Quake 2 did, which impressed me less than DOOM, etc. When you're already pretty close to reality to start with, getting even closer just doesn't involve as much apparent improvement.
