Pros: Works great and the price was sweet.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I was one of the many who thought that the internal firewire connector would look like a mobo header so that I could wire it up to the front panel of my case. I looked everywhere for a connector that had a regular firewire connector on one end and mobo header pins on the other. They're out there - I found one and got it to work. Search externally for part IEEE-1394-6-OP

Pros: Cheap and comes with adapter cable.

Cons: None.

Overall Review: I bought this to transfer video from my Samsung camcorder and it's working great. As a bonus, I have some extra devices laying around that can use the firewire ports instead of tying up my USB ports.

Pros: Three ports, pretty small card, high speed...great for anyone who doesn't have on board firewire.

Cons: none so far.

Overall Review: Says 3+1, but only 3 ports total. If you use the internal port it is wire in series with the third external port so really can only use three ports at a time and not 4.

Pros: good cheap board

Cons: wish it had a 4 wire connection too

Overall Review: Worked out of box in Windows XP. I Installed windows 7 x64 and had issues recognizing my hdv camcorder, until I found a post telling me to change the default driver to the legacy driver. Now works great.

Pros: Inexpensive and does the job.

Cons: N/A

Overall Review: Win XP Pro (with the latest updates) recognized as a PnP device; works fine with Sony camcorder.

Pros: This card loaded right up and was quickly recognized by vista so no problem. It has a regular internal firewire jack, but not the kind that the front panel on Antec 900 plugs into.

Cons: Can't plug the front panel firewire cable into it.

Overall Review: I didn't know my new gigabyte motherboard had no firewire junction on it.

Pros: Low price and promise of no drivers needed.

Cons: I have wasted 10 hours trying to get my external HD working

Overall Review: One review said it worked with Vista so I purchased it. I find it does not work with my Vista OS. Unable to find drivers.

Pros: Cheap, simple, out of box compatibility with linux (Mandriva 2008), comes with cable, which costs $15 by itself.

Cons: Nothing significant. Documentation and card does not match, there is no jumper on the card as documentation reports.

Overall Review: It is a 2+1 card as other reviewers indicated. 2 out of 4 interfaces are parallel, so can not be used simultaneously.
