GM,
I apologize if this has been answered before. I did quite a bit of poking
around in the knowledge base (search engine not working) and in the various
forums, and I did not come across this question.
I am planning to dedicate my snappy laptop (Intel Core 2 Duo Mobile T7500
Processor, 3G DDR2 RAM) for use with my Flex-5000A. I need to purchase an
ExpressCard 54 Firewire adapter. I can only seem to find two models that might
be suitable:
SIIG 2-PORT Firewire 800
XTERASYS E94A IEEE 1394 ExpressCard 2
1. I am looking for opinions / experience as to which might be a better
choice,
2. Any opinion as to why the Xterasys requires an external power supply and
the SIIG does not. Is this a performance advantage?
There are many, many choices if I would select the 34 mm adapter, but for
mechanical stability, I’d prefer to use the 54mm.
Thanks for your help.
Jim, WS6X
