Can I use the Focus FS DTE Recorder with FireWire (IEEE-1394) drive kits?
Yes. The Focus FS DTE Recorder will work with IEEE-1394 drive kits that put an IEEE-1394 interface on standard IDE disk drives. It is however necessary to ensure that the selected disk drive is capable of reading/writing DV streams in real time. Generally, that would mean a disk drive that is capable of read/write of at least 7MB/s and access times no greater than 10-12 milliseconds).
