Someone might have an internal jaz or zip drive using USB, something like
that, or possibly an internal firewire harddrive? Probably few who have
these things though. I just use the (external) firewire for an iPod. A lot
of digital cameras use them, esp video.

You could start Apple System Profiler (should be in a Utilities folder) and
go to "Devices and Volumes" tab and the firewire/usb device should show up
there. Click on the little triangles to get more details.
