So I got my 2.2 gig magicstor, which I hear is a pretty poor quality drive... but What I don't understand is...
1. Why doesn't the camera turn on some of the time when the microdrive is already in?
2. Why can I hear the microdrive doing stuff while the camera is off? And I think it's eating away at my battery while the camera is off.
What's going on? This isn't normal is it? |

Don't understand, Please explain

Is the main dial at off or the camera is off because the auto shutoff setting?

for 1. If the microdrive is in the camera, and I try to turn it on, sometimes it refuses to turn on until i take out the card.
for 2. When I say the camera is off, I mean the power switch is set to off. |

Well, you are not the only one, read this:

If I were you, I'll return the microdrive.
Good Luck
