Works great [Posted on 2007-12-03] I needed to add some firewire ports to my laptop in order to connect my new digital video camera (Canon HV20). This card worked great. Just plug and play. I had some problems with a different kind of card I got somewhere else but this one worked perfectly.

Great price, performs as it should [Posted on 2008-05-27] What can I say? This is a straight-forward product. It works as it should with my Vista Ultimate-powered laptop. Wish you the best of luck!
Doesn't cooperate fully w/Vista [Posted on 2008-06-10] Despite the "Windows Vista" compatibility logos on the Startech website & other reviews here, this card would not install properly on my Fujitsu laptop running Vista Business.
Oddly, I could still plug in and read/write to my external HDD, but other functionality was busted & it kept trying to find the card drivers. There are none available from the Startech website. Their tech support was quick to respond, but unable to solve the problem. Apparently the drivers should be included in Windows XP and Vista, but weren't on my system.
There are cheaper alternatives w/both 1394a (Firewire 400) and the newer 1394b (Firewire 800) that hopefully will work out better. Returning this for another option.
Wrong size!! [Posted on 2008-06-13] Who knew. they make an express PCIMA card so this didint work for me and I sure would like to return it!
Not compatible apparently... [Posted on 2008-07-18] I have a Dell Precision M65 Notebook and this card simply isn't compatible. On other sites I have now found out that this product has had problems with other Dell models. If you are a Dell user, might want to think about a different card.
