Information processing device and method, to prevent hot insertion and extraction of SIM tray
The present technique relates to an information processing device, an information processing method, a record medium and a program which can prevent hot insertion and extraction of an SIM card. A removing unit removes a tray storing a storage member. A removal detector detects an operation of starting removal of the tray before the removing unit removes the tray. A power controller stopping power supplying to the storage member when the removal detector detects the operation of starting the removal of the tray may be employed. The present technique may be applied, e.g., to a personal computer.
1. An information processing device, comprising:
a removal detector configured to detect an operation that corresponds to removal of a tray, based on a first insertion of an object into the tray up to a first position; and
a removing unit configured to remove the tray based on a second insertion of the object into the tray up to a second position different from the first position,
wherein the tray is configured to store a storage member, and
wherein the operation is detected before removal of the tray.
2. The information processing device according to claim 1 , further comprising a power controller configured to stop power supply to the storage member based on the operation that is detected.
3. The information processing device according to claim 2 , further comprising:
a tray detector configured to detect the second insertion of the tray into a slot of the information processing device,
wherein the power controller is configured to start the power supply to the storage member based on the second insertion of the tray.
4. The information processing device according to claim 3 , further comprising:
a detection determining unit configured to output a removal signal at a first level based on a first determination that the removal detector detects other than the operation, and the tray detector detects the second insertion of the tray,
wherein the power controller is further configured to start the power supply to the storage member based on a second determination that the removal signal output from the detection determining unit is at the first level.
5. The information processing device according to claim 4 , wherein
the detection determining unit is further configured to output the removal signal at a second level based on a third determination that the removal detector detects the operation, and the tray detector detects other than the second insertion of the tray, and
the power controller is further configured to stop the power supply to the storage member based on a fourth determination that the removal signal output from the detection determining unit is at the second level.
6. The information processing device according to claim 3 , wherein the tray detector is further configured to:
detect that the inserted tray is electrically connected to the storage member; and
drive the storage member.
7. The information processing device according to claim 4 , further comprising a communication unit configured to send a request for storage member information to the storage member.
8. The information processing device according to claim 7 , wherein
the detection determining unit is further configured to detect whether the storage member information is obtained, and
the power controller is further configured to stop the power supply to the storage member, based on a fifth determination that the storage member information is unavailable.
9. The information processing device according to claim 8 , wherein the storage member information comprises identification information of the storage member.
10. The information processing device according to claim 1 , wherein the object comprises a pin configured to push a removal detector switch to detect the first insertion.
11. An information processing method, comprising:
detecting an operation corresponding to removal of a tray, based on a first insertion of an object into the tray up to a first position; and
removing the tray based on a second insertion of the object into the tray up to a second position different from the first position,
wherein the tray is configured to store a storage member, and
wherein the operation is detected before removal of the tray.
12. A non-transitory computer-readable medium having stored thereon, computer-executable instructions for causing a computer to execute operations, the operations comprising:
detecting an operation corresponding to removal of a tray, based on a first insertion of an object into the tray up to a first position; and
removing the tray based on a second insertion of the object into the tray up to a second position different from the first position,
wherein the tray is configured to store a storage member, and
wherein the operation is detected before removal of the tray.
