I have just purchased an empty Travelstar 8E case and put in an Apple laptop drive. The case is powered by the pcmcia card, but I was wondering if someone could tell me when to use the 'power on' and 'off' green button on the drive. Do I insert the pcmcia card, wait for an icon to appear and then power the drive 'on', or does it need to be 'on' at insertion. Also, when I want to shut it down, do I leave it 'on' and drag the icon to the trash, or do I turn it 'off' first and then drag the icon to the trash?
Thanks.
