When calibre detects the kobo, it asks windows for the list of drives so it can mount the kobo's memory. This causes windows (not calibre) to poll A:. If the kobo is not completely detected (busted memory or an unknown drive string), the process repeats in a bit.
If you have a "fix" for this "bug", I am sure that Kovid would love to have it. He said as much in the bug report that I pointed toward.
