When Steve first demo'd Macs with Firewire, one of the things he demonstrated was how you could unplug a Firewire drive during a large transfer and then plug it in a few moments later and it would pick up where it left off. Apparently that didn't work out.
While you shouldn't do it, and I always tell people they should never do it, I've not personally had an issue with it.
Now, go back a few dozen years to SCSI connectivity; that's another matter.
Or to a PC with a floppy disk and a manual eject button.
