Hi folks, I'm new to the list, so this question may have been covered to death.
I've got a powercenter 120, with a 300 mHz upgrade card, and have convinced myself I need to add a firewire port. I added a USB port/card a year or so ago, and haven't been too impressed with the results. I have a USB hard drive I had hoped to use with it, but it is INCREDIBLY slow. I assume this may be a function of the Powercenter's bus speed. Can you guys: 1) recommend a firewire card that will work well with this model, and 2) comment on whether there will be a noticeable improvement in speed with a firewire drive compared to a USB drive... I realize firewire is inherently faster - but is the bus speed going to cause the same bottleneck as I've experienced with the USB port?
