James 11/27/2012 6:58:53 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 3/5Bought two, one DOA Pros: When it works, it works. Works with firewire 400 out of the box - Additional driver enables firewire 800 speeds. Cons: Of the two we got, one refused to work. Other Thoughts: I'd buy another of these if I really needed FireWire, but with eSATA and USB 3, I'm done with firewire. Did you find this review helpful?

Matt 6/22/2012 7:05:11 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 1/5Disater Pros: None. Cons: Horrible driver support. Never achieved Firewire B speeds. Once installed, it would freeze up my computer when I would try to boot. Once disconnected, the PC started normally. Did you find this review helpful? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 12/20/2011 6:52:07 PM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 1/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 2/5Card was used Pros: Don't know have not tried it, yet. Cons: I paid for a new card. It would have been nice if newegg did not sell me a used card. 0 out of 4 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 8/29/2011 5:28:35 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Meh Pros: works, use unibrain drivers in 7x64 Cons: lots of noise on the PCI bus. Meaning I can actually hear my DROBO drives spinning up through my presonus 26x26 which is on a different FW card. I did some mu shileding and helped the problem. FW800 is a lame physical interface with no clicking on the connections or other retainers. 0 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
N/A 6/2/2011 6:01:03 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 2/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 4/5Good Card - So So Drivers Pros: Nice, compact card. Fits well with my Dell Small Form Factor Optiplex 780 with the low-profile bracket. Cons: Drivers that came on the CD with the card were not compatible with my Canon HV30 HDV camera. Spent many hours troubleshooting the camera to later find that updating the firewire card drivers in Windows device manager, found a Texas Instruments driver that was better than the inluded "UniBrain" driver. (That's what you get for folliwing instructions some times....grrr) Other Thoughts: For the price, this is a great buy - considering the lifetime warranty. Thanks Newegg!

tmod 2/26/2011 4:09:17 PM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Oh Yeah Pros: Works great. VNC & file swap directly between connected computers while they are connected to the home network. Cons: Weird drivers on cd, but who cares since the base XP drivers work well enough. Showing up as 100mb speed even though the transfers are coming off much faster. Other Thoughts: I got this to get some practical experience with FW since work got some devices and I was drafted as resident "expert," and with the economy I wanted to potentially blow stuff up at the house vs work.

N/A 2/7/2011 7:43:38 AM Tech Level: 5/5 Ownership: 4/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Good card Pros: Easy to install firewire card. You'll need a screwdriver to switch from the standard to low profile bracket, that is of course par for the course. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Note that this is a 1x PCIe card. One PCIe lane is 2.0Gbit/s, Firewire 800 is 800Mbit/s so all three firewire 800 ports cannot draw full bandwidth at once. This is likely irrelevant to most people purchasing the card, but keep it in mind. 2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Thanks for the valuable feedback you provided!
barryk 5/25/2010 10:20:59 AM Tech Level: 4/5 Ownership: 3/5 Verified Owner	Rating: 5/5Excellent Pros: Installed with no issues. Had to load the included driver for XP. I am using it with a Lexar FW800 card reader. It is super fast. Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Easy to install. Works perfectly. Did you find this review helpful?
