[QUOTE="chas_m, post: 1010804"] If the OP is looking for Firewire hard drives in order to create bootable clones of his boot drive, he will want to look at the MyBook line from Western Digital (not all models have Firewire but some do), or the LaCie triple interface drives (not my favourites), or possibly entertain the idea of just buying a "bare" drive and a firewire case (like the ones OWC sells, or Coolmax) and put those together (very very easy to do). It usually costs a few bucks more for a Firewire drive than an equivalent USB-only, but the speed difference more than makes up the minor cost differential. [/QUOTE]
