ABSTRACT:
A disk-cartridge-type adapter is capable of reducing power consumption.
The adapter has a sensor for detecting the rotation its of a motor of a drive into which the adapter is inserted. If the sensor detects that a magnet (101) attached to a spindle of the motor is not running, power from a power source of the adapter is supplied only to an MPU of the adapter and is not supplied to an interface with the drive.
