Hi there.
I've got problems trying to make my firewire devices function to their full capablility. I have a OWC Mercury Elite Pro Al 250Gb Triple interface external hard disk (what a mouthful!) connected to my powerbook G4 1.5Ghz via a firewire 800 cable to the onboard firewire 800 slot, and it works fine, running at 800 Mb/s. BUT, I've also got an M-Audio Projectmix which connects with a firewire 400 cable. I've just bought a PCMCIA firewire adapter so that the hard disk and the Projectmix can have their own separate bus, but when I plug the Projectmix in the speed of the Hard disk connection drops to 400Mb/s. I can't understand why, when they're connected on different buses. (The whole reason why I bought the PCMCIA Firewire card was to get around this problem!) Please help!! Thanks. |

check in system profiler to see if there is any more specific information on the card, then try to google that and see what you come up with
