  • Hey all, just changed over the backend after 15 years I figured time to give it a bit of an update, its probably gonna be a bit weird for most of you and i am sure there is a few bugs to work out but it should kinda work the same as before... hopefully :)

firewire question

6 and 9 pin 400 and 800

also will show up from USB with Power adapter
 
is the drive bus powered?

is the drive bus powered?

Will the drive run on bus power without the ac power supply?
 
It works on my mac book pro although a gtech drive plus a red drive doesn't work. Too much power draw?
 
Ah. I thought that the power adapter was just for USB.
 
G-tech doesn't have powered ports coming from their enclosures...

Ive hooked up the Red-Drive hundreds of Times without AC adapter... even to Western Digital Enclosures (which are the ultimate in terrible). Another reason NOT to buy G-tech.. no powered ports... ugh... Other world Computing has great enclosures that are always sending Bus-power over 6 and 9 pin. AND they don't fall asleep!
