So you want to be able to pull one SATA drive and push another one under
live Windows XP?
Without any RAID? Without going to "safely remove hardware" or similar
manual procedure?
Without risking of data corruption? You must be dreaming.
You can't just pull and plug, but if you first go to device manager and
disable the drive you are removing and then enable the one you insert the
process goes fine.
That's my point. Can't pull a drive without first telling OS about your
intentions.
Unless you do not care about data integrity or have an intelligent RAID
controller.

I would like to simply reach over and yank out the removable drive any
time I wish, and replace it with another drive. (Now, if I have to go
to the system tray, and tap on dismount or something like that, so be
it - I just want to know what I must do.)
