Default Which boards support hot-swapping SATA drives?

I have a P4PE board and I am interested in setting up RAID1 with
removable enclosures for hdd's for backup instead of tape.

Will my board allow for hot-swapping or is that an OS issue? (I use
Win2K, soon upgrading to WinXP). If not, which ASUS boards allow it?

Thanks
Ken K

3Ware and Promise both make PCI-SATA cards that support hot-swapping.
Not sure about HighPoint and Adaptec.

Doubt you will find a motherboard that supports it with an
integrated controller.
