This one is easy, the answer is the user is disconnected from Windows Explorer and a partition of the hard-drive.

Windows Explorer is everything that allows you to navigate a windows operating system: documents, taskbar, desktop... ect, so when the user 'logs off' the computer, windows explorer process is shutdown.

The user is also disconnected from the hard drive but the system is not, this is because if there are multiple accounts on the computer, then other accounts can access their personal space on the hard drive.

Aslong as the computer is switched on, even at logon screen power is still being consumed to run the computer's operating system and files which are ready for the user to log back on.

What happens when you disconnected the SATA data cable from the additional drive while Windows is still running?

If not currently written to or read from, connecting or disconnecting a drive will not affect the device or computer. While in the specification, SATA hot-swapping is listed, depending on the feature's hardware and software implementation, actual usefulness of this feature will vary! Windows 10 version 1909 does not realize that a drive has been connected or disconnected. For these changes to be visible in Windows Explorer, Diskpart, etc., the computer needs to be rebooted.
