Re: lacie BIGGEST FW800

Hi t35t0r+list:

Regular slot AFAIK - it's Lacie part # 107755, btw.
I'll try the non-modular approach next I think.  Don't have any FW400 
ports to try it on - though wouldnt' be hard to get hold of a card, just 
not instantly perhaps.  Haven't flashed firmware up - it reports 1.32 at 
present - what version yours?
