I have a IBM brand, purchased from OWC a couple of years ago. Came with
6- and 4-pin cables that have flat connectors to the PC card. Worked in
my Wallstreet in both OS9 and OSX and I still use it with my TiBook.
Do you consider it faster than the builtin FW bus? Early TiBooks being famous for having slow FW. Or perhaps you have a later incarnation?
It's twice as fast as the built-in. I have a 500mhz model. A while ago I posted speeds, here they are again - copying a 4.11GB iMovie project folder to a 7200rpm FW drive:
TiBook 500 (internal) 16:08 TiBook 500 (PC card) 6:24 Lombard 333 (PC card) 7:15 Pismo 500 (internal) 6:56
As a last reference, my iMac 800 did the files in 2:37.
