    Firewire DVD-ROM Emulator

    I figure this is a pretty long shot, and it doesn't even have to be a Mac app specifically, but I'm going to ask here anyway -- I am looking for a way to emulate a DVD-ROM that can mount a disc image (ISO, etc.) and present it over FireWire and it appear on another machine just as if I had...

    FireWire bus bandwidth for multiple chained drives

    I'm acquiring a 2012 Mac Mini and a bunch of LaCie 2big RAID enclosures, with the intention of making a FreeBSD/ZFS file server. Some of these enclosures would connect over FireWire 800, but the Mac Mini only has one port. They would be daisy-chained using FW800 cables. In a situation where...

    Booting From FireWire 400 Hub

    Hello, I was wondering, if I were to get a FireWire 400 hub, can I boot from things connected to it? I am asking because my iBook G4 only has one FireWire port and I wasn't sure if this is a viable solution. FireWire drives are pricey and I know that I can't boot from a drive connected to my USB...

    Is the Sony HVR-M15U compatible with a older Mac pro?

    I recently purchased a Sony HVR-M15U in order to capture many Mini-DV tapes in both DV and HDV formats. The unit appears to be working as I can view video on an external monitor etc. I connected it to my older MacPro and connected it via a firewire cable. I launched iMovie and when I turned on...

    iPod 3rd Gen iPod Charging Question.

    Hey, I just bought a 'for parts' 3rd generation iPod on eBay for a good price, (I've always wanted to own this model, and I am fairly confident that I can fix it, since I think it just needs a HDD swap). I have done it before with an iPod photo, which turned out just to have the data cable...

    Resolved G5 PCI-X (or PCI) compatibility with the Sun ASY-90145 1394/USB2.0 card?

    So there are a mess of used, PCI combo FW1394a/USB2.0 cards being sold all over which were for Sun servers (I'm guessing SPARC) during the early/mid-’00s — the ASY-90145 (375-3140-05). Try as I may, I cannot locate original tech specs for this card, so I lack knowledge of whether this was PCI...
