This link seems to indicate "hot swap" means telling the machine you're

not really hot swapping; I would prefer to be able to just yank to drive
and let the OS figure it out itself.
What is the common industry definition of hot swapping?
I'd say the most common definition is the ability to swap-out a failed
disk whilst power is connected to the system, and the OS remains up -
sometimes informing the controller, sometimes not..
