Electronic apparatus, unit drive, and interface controlling method of the unit drive

摘要

According to one embodiment, an electronic apparatus including an driving unit configured to drive an expansion unit which is detachably loaded, and a communication controller configured to control communication with the driving unit via an interface which can be electrically disconnected with power turned on, the driving unit includes a detection unit configured to detect loading/unloading of the expansion unit, and an interface control unit configured to control the interface so as to disable the interface if unloading of the expansion unit is detected by the detection unit and to allow the communication controller to determine enabling/disabling of the interface if loading of the expansion unit is detected.
