Also- the SATA connectors of one incarnation are only rated for 50 connect/disconnect cycles.

Good grief. How many times do you swap hard drives on the average system? I tend to install them and leave them installed. I may carry them over to a new system, but if a drive survives more than two generations of motherboard it's probably too small to be useful anyway.

Think of the hard-drive-as-a-floppy situation, where someone is plugging different HDs into a single USB2/Firewire adapter.

Which has exactly what to do with SATA? SATA Motherboard connector's service life doesn't _need_ to exceed 50 cycles. External connections are different.
