Consider the following scenario. You connect a Toshiba Device Bay optical drive to a portable Toshiba computer that is running Windows Vista. To do this, you use a hot-swap operation, or you use a warm-swap operation. In this scenario, the drive is not recognized.

Note: In this scenario, a “hot-swap operation” means that you connect the drive while the computer is still running. A “warm-swap operation” means that you connect the drive while the computer is asleep, and then you wake the computer.
