[DM-MUG] Firewire 400 adapter

[Jon Thompson]

Sonnet is a respected brand in anything related to firewire. Often,  
their cards perform better than the internal firewire bus.
Firewire 800 is backwards compatible with Firewire 400, although you  
need either a 9 pin to 6 pin (or four pin) cable or an adapter like  
what you found on Amazon. I would strongly recommend getting it.  
Unless Haddock or the Apple Store have it in stock, your best bet is  
to get it from Amazon.
