Also the firewire 800 was faster and used less CPU time than the USB2 connection. That said, all three (including firewire 400) worked perfectly well for editing on my machine. Copying files from or to the external disk via f/wire 800 showed the biggest gains with appreciably quicker times versus the other two. Dunno if all firewire 800 disks will show the same results though. I used the La Cie combo firewire card which has both 400 and 800 ports.
