get a new cable? is everything cool enough? why do you think, it is the controller? and last point: if the controller is not explicitly marked as hot-swapable, and the board able to do hotswap too, you have to proper shutdown to change hardware. Since I suspect, that it is a PCI controller, and PCI is not hotplug/hotswapable, the answer should be no. -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
