This is something you should avoid purchasing

3/5

In the end, you won't be able to connect a FireWire HD using this method. I didn't read any reviews before purchasing this adapter, assuming that I could easily connect an old FireWire hard drive and organize some old files by doing so. When I plugged it in, I received messages telling me to unplug it, and all of my other hard drives were automatically disconnected. Thankfully, there were no negative consequences. Only later did I learn that a FireWire device consumes too much power to be connected to a USB port. So, of course, this adapter isn't going to work! Hopefully, you've read this before squandering your cash. I threw it away so that it wouldn't end up in the hands of some other unfortunate individual! I did some research and placed an order for a new cord as well as a thunderbolt adapter. I'm crossing my fingers that the $40 investment pays off.

utterly insignificant: It does nothing but heat up to a boiling point

3/5

I was hoping to use this to connect a firewire output from an old video recorder to a USB port, but it didn't work on either a Mac or a Linux machine; both saw a new USB device, but none with video capabilities.

Doesn't work

3/5

a waste of time. . . . A FireWire HD cannot be connected using this method. I hoped that plugging in my old FireWire drive would be simple, but I received messages telling me that I needed to unplug it right away. This adapter will not work because FireWire devices require too much power to run through a USB port; read this before wasting your money. . . Garbage. . . Junk.

This is not going to happen

3/5

So I bought this the other day and it's not working. I tried using the adapter with my Motu Ultralite, but it didn't work. On my desktop, I used the same firewire cable, which worked flawlessly. I tried using it with the adapter on my laptop, but it didn't work out.
