Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler USB to Firewire Adapter?

OK, looked around a bit. This one seems good enough, one 400 Mbit port, and two at 800 Mbit. So it is actually a better card.

You shouldn't need any cables more than what you already have. You will have to get something different if you want to use the 800 Mbit interfaces, but the drive you have doesn't support that anyway. (There are 800 to 400 cables, so you can make use of all the ports with legacy gear, just with a cable purchase.)

Thanks. It's orderd.

Send me a PM when you get it, and are ready for the install.

Looks like I don't need to bother you at all Chris. I feel silly for thinking installing it would be challenging. I didn't even have to install a driver. The device was recognized without so much as a window popping up when I powered the machine up. Now I just need to find a damn screw to replace the case screw I stole for the holder.

Thanks a bunch!

Yeah, that's why I didn't think twice about offering my help, it would have been so easy to walk you through it over the phone.

No problem!

I think Chris was really looking forward to helping you out. This is what I picture will happen when he reads that you didn't need him.

Well I am having other problems.... It might be better to wait till the roads dry up and send him a plane ticket so he can help me with my heel / toe techniques too.

It's uncanny!
