    I noticed that the DVD reader is not detected if I hotswap it. It works when I reboot the computer, but not when I plug it in after the OS is booted. I also notice that I cannot detect external drives that use Dynamic volumes. I can detect external drives that use partitions just fine, but not Dynamic volumes. I'm curious if anyone else has had the same problem.
