The RocketFire Combo PCI FireWire/USB Card brings both FireWire and USB ports to your older PCI Mac or PC. Now you can add the latest peripheral I/O technology to your older system and only give up one one of those precious PCI slots.
The RocketFire Combo PCI FireWire/USB Card has two FireWire connectors and two USB connectors. With the combination of both high-speed FireWire and low-cost USB, your computer can take advantage of all the latest peripherals on the market. Imagine being able to attach an external FireWire hard drive and a DV camera directly to your computer without the need to restart the system or install cryptic drivers. Capture video, edit it, and then save it to an external pocket-size hard drive to move data between systems quickly. And you can add a low-cost peripheral like a Zip drive, keyboard or TV tuner to your USB ports at the same time. The card has the intelligence to support both USB and FireWire devices simultaneously. All ports are always active. It is like having two cards in your system in one slot!
Now "plug-and-play" is truly here, regardless of the type of device you wish to connect. With FireWire and USB you are ensured compatibility with the latest peripherals on the market.
