Hello,
I'm interested in buying an external CDRW drive for my G3mt working in OS 10.2.8. I don't want to pay big because I won't use it that much. The only ones I see on e-bay seem to be for a forewire connection. I want to connect to a USB port. Is there a cable that is firewire connector on one end and USB on the other?


No.

Plus, trust me, you don't want a USB CDRW! They're slow and picky. You can burn at a max speed of 2X. A firewire card is < $20 and will burn disks far faster.
