You can plug the drive in either before booting the computer or plug it in when Windows is running already, all you have to do is a simple scan of new hardware and the drive will come up.
Testing time:
Intel Core i7 920
MSI X58M Motherboard
Corsair Tri channel kit DDR3
Patriot TorqX 64GB SSD (MLC drive like the Crucial)
Asus 9800GT
Nexus NX-5000 PSU
Arctic Cooling Lumiere Thermal Paste
Windows Vista 64 bits and Win7 Ultimate
Testing was done with Winrar, Pcmark Vantage and with reboot, startup and shutdown times.
