I have a MacBook Pro with a Firewire 800 (9-pin) port and an external Western Digital hard drive which only has two Firewire 400 (6-pin) ports.
Does this mean I cannot run Firewire 800 to this external hard drive? Even if I have a 9-pin to 6-pin cable? If so, what is the point of a 9-pin to 6-pin cable?
Thanks in advance.
