Hi All,
I have a removable drive sleeve that I mount SATA
drives mounted in that attaches to an internal SATA
port. I use it backup my system to removable
drives. The mechanism works identical to USB
flash drives.
With one exception. A drive MUST be in the
carriage when I boot up. Otherwise, if I insert
a drive AFTER the system is booted up, the drive
is invisible to the system.
Now I have seen Clonzilla re-educating the system
as to what drives are where. Is there a way to
goose Fedora to do the same? Is there
a way to rescan without having to reboot?
Many thanks,

Follow up:
Okay, now this is embarrassing.
I booted into bios with the drive powered up.
I went into SATA Configuration to see if
there was any other setting(s) that might help.
To my absolute embarrassment, Hot Swap and Spin Up
were both disabled. (No idea how that happened.)
Guess what is working flawlessly now...
Many of you called it too. Thank you all
for the help.
