There is a whole history about this if you search the forum.
Standard adaptors won't work you need an OTG lead otherwise (unless you have 2 usb sockets 1 to host and 1 to slave) the tablet wont recognise it is host mode when you connect any peripheral device so wont provide any power to it. Have a read here about connecting a usb flash drive for more explanation: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=2062
If it isn't broken then don't try to fix it!
