[QUOTE="MightyGem, post: 1287170, member: 180699"] I don't think that there are firewire to usb adaptors as firewire transmits data in a different way to USB. It sounds like you have an iMac which has a Firewire 800 socket but you'll need one on the external drive to use it. Have you tried a different USB port/cable? [/QUOTE]
