I'm looking to pick up a firewire card for my JB3 transfers. Does it make a difference which one you get? I've seen them in ther $15-60 range and did'nt know if it really matterted that much? Also, if anyone knows some cheap prices on one let me know.
shouldnt matter, the cheaper you go, you usually get what ya paid for, but its a firewire card, cheapness shouldnt matter
That's kind of what I figured....maybe the cheapo's might have slightly slower speeds. I wanted to see if anyone's had any issues with the cheaper ones.
I use Adaptec 4300. Works great with XP. Use the card to transfer VHS tapes to DVD too.
I ordered mine from hama..www.hama.de (the site has has two languages english/german..
the products do too.) Ive had mine for a long time, and It works really great. It was 34.95..Never had any problems, and super fast....Hama is a household name here, and the americans here always buy their electronics over others...For some reason, though germany is way behind us technologically, their computer products are amazing.....
My 2 cents....

I bought one from Wal-Mart, and it works fine. $29.99 i think?
Im running a Western Digital firewire card(I know I didint know they made um)
Paid $ 1 off Ebay and $8 to ship it, its fast and was a breeeze to set up.

puts a whole different light on the value of a dollar.
