The problem is that it's a mechanical device and shocks can damage it.
Also, I think the slot is a little big in the 10 so the fit may be "sloppy".
The slot is smaller in the 20 so fit is supposed to be better.

| Yes, it does. It's just a CompactFlash card, just like a regular one, but
it
| is a CF II, which is a little thicker.  Most cameras can't accept it.  The
| E-10 will, but Olympus doesn't recommend it.  Works though, so I don't
know
| what the perceived problem was.  They do, interestingly, officially
support
| it on the E-20.
|
| If your camera supports CF II, it should work with the Microdrive. Uses
more
| batteries than Flash cards though.  Most Olympus digicams use SmartMedia
| though. I think the E-10/E-20 are the only ones that support the CF cards.
|
| The E-10/E-20 also have Smart media slots. You can even copy between the
| cards in the camera.
