Review title: Piece of crap
Product review: I plugged a firewire cable into it, it shorted, and my computer couldn't read it anymore. This thing essentially has no off switch, but the problem is that it must have gotten hot. The firewire sockets seemed to have already been cooked before the firewire bus got shorted. Maybe firewire itself was never a good idea. Who knows? But an external hard drive I got has never had problems, no matter how often I have to unplug and replug cables. But I've given up on getting a firewire burner for my PPC Mac. Luckily I can clone installation DVDs to a partition on my external hard drive, and boot from that.
