Nope, false. You can hotswap as many times as you like. Just don't disable security on the drive (Leaving it in an unlocked state) without a backup of the EEPROM/HDKEY or you're screwed and will require a modchip.

You probably did not hotswap at the correct time. If I unplug the Xbox's IDE cable right after the hard drive becomes unlocked (when the white MS logo appears on your TV), I usually have a high success rate of connecting to the drive.
