That would be FireWIRE.  A firewall is there but it is something else.

Check your external drives, most fullsize (not laptop) drives have two 
Firewire ports on them.  You just connect another drive to the second port.

Barring that you would need a FireWire hub.  They are around but not 
nearly as common as USB hubs.  A Froogle search should yield one.
