PCIe Firewire 400 Card,IEEE 1394a PCI Express 4 Ports PCIe Card (3 X 6 Pin and 1 X 4 Pin),Firewire 400 Adapter for Windows 7/8/10/11/Mac Os/Xp/2000/2003/ Vista/Dos,Linux(PCIE-IEEE 1394A)

The card works great in Windows 10 and Ubuntu Linux. No extra driver installs needed and it immediately recognized an older miniDV video camera. However, the cable it came with didn't work right, and the camera would get stuck in a connect-disconnect cycle. Not sure if its a quality issue or a broken cable. Using an old firewire 800 cable worked great.

I recently purchased this PCIe Firewire 400 Card for my computer, but I had a bit of a "user error" moment. When I opened up my case to install it, I realized I actually already had the card installed from a previous build! Even though the mistake was entirely on my end, this company graciously allowed me to return it. It is so refreshing to deal with a seller that is helpful and makes the return process smooth and hassle-free. A few notes on the product: Versatile Ports: With 3 x 6-pin and 1 x 4-pin ports, it’s a perfect setup for connecting older Firewire devices like cameras or external drives. Solid Quality: Based on the card I already have (which is identical), it works perfectly with Windows and provides a stable connection. Great Value: The price is very fair for a 4-port expansion card. If you are looking for a reliable IEEE 1394a card, I highly recommend this one—not just for the hardware, but because the company stands behind their customers!

The name of the manufacturer is not listed anywhere on the card or the box, and there is no documentation, which tells you everything you need to know. These cards are the tech equivalent of trash-quality "fast fashion" clothing. You get what you pay for. My first card would not function - fully up to date Windows 11 detected that it was plugged in, but could not detect what it was. It just appeared as "unknown device". Forcing a legacy driver on the device, which should not have been necessary and definitely should have worked, did not work. Returned the card as defective. The replacement card was obviously a return from someone else - the box was torn, the static bag had numerous creases from re-use, and the cable was missing. I didn't feel comfortable putting this one in my PC, so I returned it as well. I drove down to my local big box computer parts store, bought a name brand card for 3x the cost, and it worked first try. Judging by other reviews, whether or not you get a functioning card is a total crapshoot. Save yourself the frustration and find a better option.

Works well with another cable . Plug and play , recognized in windows 11 and Linux . Consider the free cable to go straight to the e Recycle bin

Worked great with my windows computer running cubase14 with a older Focusrite pro14 fire wire interface. Will not work with an Apple product running Sequoia or the previous version of iOS.

I had a lot of mini-DV tapes to download and digitize on computer, and this looked like a reasonable and inexpensive solution. The price was very affordable, and it was easy enough to install - crack the case, find an available slot, seat the card and clamp it down with a screw (not included so I had to hunt one down) and spin up the computer. As described in the writeup, the setup was THAT easy. When I spun up the computer, it recognized the card, installed it, and I was up and running. I captured all the video off one tape, and shut down, expecting to pick up with the second tape the next day. No such luck. The next day I spun up the computer, and this Firewire card was nowhere to be found. I looked in Device Manager, had it rescan for devices, still MIA. I powered down the PC, cracked the case, removed the card, and reinstalled, reseating the card carefully, but after a powercycle the computer STILL could not find that card. I found another interface, this one is following Woody to the Landfill.

Used to import data from al old camera (so compatible with Sony a1u / HDV format - as long as you have a 4-pin to 6-pin Firewire cable). Worked as is should have; however I noticed a few dropped frame; some where recorded as such, other caused by the import (did not happened again on second try). I did not try to use the provided cable as other mentioned they had issues with that. I used an old one I had laying around. Because that camera uses the HDV format I could not use "WinDV", but I was able to import using the "HDVSplit" software (but if you want to see the footage on your PC while it is being imported, you have to jump thru a few hoops) -- search for this on VideoHelp.com to get more info. Imported hours successfully using that card and the software above (HDVSplit) on Windows 11.

The Is PCIe is working good. The cable provide is not working with FireWire

I bought this to transfer mini dv video tapes to my pc. It installed easily and the included cable worked perfectly.

Working perfectly fine. No installation problem

Unfortunately this does not work in my PC. It is not recognised in Device Manager. Driver update did not help. I have given it 3 stars as it looks well made, and must surely work in some set-ups, but not mine.

يعمل بشكل مثالي

It's working perfect. Even dv recorder control through firewire working perfect. It stops autometicly when there is no recording & start by itself when recording is there.
