Josh, I have had good results with the MacAlly USB card, and the Newer FireWire2Go card (OS 9.1). If you've been wondering about those USB/Firewire combo cards, I can tell you that I have tried the ADS Dual Link combo card with mixed results (website description had stated compatibility with OS9/OSX). The USB part works fine, but, could never get the Firewire ports working on that thing. Even tried every type of firewire driver that I could find from other makes and the different versions of the MacOS firewire extension. In any case, remember that you will not be able to boot with these cards installed.
