SIIG 3PORT Firewire 800 Pcie 2X9PIN 1X6PIN
$ 17.67
I bought this since my new computer did not have firewire 800 ports. I’m using a Fireface 800 and was having trouble with the drivers. I installed the card then the 800 driver off the cd. I did have to go to the device manager and update the driver for the 3port card. Once I did that everything else fell into place and am now able to use my fireface 800.-Update april 2015 – Well there was a reason my computer did not come with Firewire ports. Win 7 rewrote their firewire drivers and they are phasing out support for it. What this means this product indirectly will probably cause some issues. I had constant crashes and blue screens while using a my Fireface 800. After a year of updating Reason and messing with firewire drivers, I was able to use it with some stability but I could not use any wave editing programs without them crashing. In the end I have sold my fireface 800 and I am downgrading my audio interface to one that will utilize USB. RME does have audio interfaces that are newer that use USB but I do not trust their drivers with windows 7 (their company has a good rep for solid drivers, go figure).In the end this product worked and allowed me to use firewire but I really should not have…
