A computer enclosure capable of supporting hot plugging of hard disk drives contains an opening on the front plate, the top plate, or a side plate. Through the opening, a disk cabinet is installed. The disk cabinet has a number of hot-plugging connectors for connection to a number of hard disk drives installed in the disk cabinet. Each hot-plugging connector is also connected to a power cable and a data cable to a motherboard in the enclosure. The hard disk drives therefore can be installed or removed from the disk cabinet without shutting down the computer's power and without being configured in a hot-pluggable tray in advance.
