Hello Absic,
Thanks for your answer.
Yes, I am in Windows, XP Pro SP3, Native IDE. Any idea where I can find a how-to about these tweaks? I have not find.
Then, assuming I did it and it works : before unplugging a disk, how can I be sure it is safe to do so? I.e., I don't do it before WinXP has completed any delayed write, which would kill my files table. In USB it's easy, there is the Safely Remove Hardware feature. What is the Hotplug equivalent?
Thank you,
