firewire to ide
 

problem: i ordered an ide-to-firewire bay (so i can connect my hdd to any pc with firewire) but in windows nor bios nor dos the hdd is regcognized.

anyone any tips about the jumper settings,?? i've tried them all but cable select...

greetz

it was cable select :gay:

thx anyway

May i know where you bought it ? i have a laptop with firewire and this was something i was looking for

or is this not a standalone bay ?

I let my dad buy a Iomega firewire 40 GB HDD for his backups

compact, light but very expensive (+300€)

i intend on having for that price 200 gb normal ide harddisks with this converter

cheaper and better and hopefully as fast :p

Check the link out. I bought one of these and it is TERRIFIC. That's one of the things I LOVE about firewire---the PC recognizes it as if it's always been there. It's a nice drive, fast and quiet. Craighttp://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10333161&loc=101
