   Good. Unless all devices are totally write protected, don't even
begin to contemplate such a move if you value data integrity. Most to
all OSs do *not* like it when volume directories and contents change
under them-- they cache critical parts and assume they're not
changing. Trying to do this is only risking major disk corruption, and
not recommended in the least.
