These things can be troublesome so get the best cable you can find, double or tipple shielded, gold plated pins. Transfer the ferrite beads from the supplied 6 pin to 6 pin cable to your new one. Use a wire tie to hold the beads in place, make it snug but don't over tighten.

Well, I'm smart. I bought a nice MacBook pro with a fire wire port, put win7 in bootcamp... got er all loaded up. Then bought a Flex 3000. I did not realize that there are different firewire cables/connectors.... So.... is there such a thing as 1394 to 800 conversion ? what do you know? Respectfully Danno/k7ddm
