FireWire allows you to tranfer data to hard drives and peripherals at high speeds; most Apple and Sony brand computers come with built in firewire support. The FireWire 800 advantage is simple: speed. At 800Mbps of data transfer rate, it has twice the speed FireWire 400, which makes it the perfect choice for high-speed storage and serious video capture. FireWire 800 products are backwards compatible with FireWire 400. Visit the Tomato Chip Firewire Store.
