Hot swappable hdd? :S

[amuffin]

Is there such device that lets you stick hdd 1 in and take it out and put hdd 2 in? that would fit convinently in a 5.25 drive bay? Because I have a hackintosh setup, where I have 2 hdd (1 with mac os and 1 with windows) Is there any way of doing this? Put hdd 1 in get mac os, put hdd 2 in get windows.

You can do it with a hot swap bay device, the only problem it some bios will reset their boot order on HDD change.

What do you mean by bios resetting? So all my overclocking settings will be gone?

no you are thinking that it would default the bios. all it will do is change what device the PC will point to first when booting up
