Click to expand.So why haven't you? Sorry, don't mean to offend, but it's laughable how folks will take technology for granted. It so ubiquitous in our lives it's easy to forget the inherent complexity of it all.

If you research the interfaces you'll see it could be a rather relatively expensive endeavor. Someone needs to be willing to invest in the design/engineering/manufacture just to target a very limited market interested for such a device.

It would be more cost affective to just buy a new computer with USB 3 capability.

Mac os leopard download. I have a mid-2010 iMac that has a Firewire 800 and USB 2.0 ports (and no Thunderbolt port--though apparently I bought an iMac right before they started including them). A lot of the external hard drives I'm buying now have USB 3.0 ports, but no Firewire ports.

Is there an adapter that would connect my FIrewire 800 port to a USB 3.0 port on an external hard drive, AND take advantage of the extra speed offered by the Firewire 800 port? In other words, right now I'm just connecting the USB 3.0 external drives to the USB 2.0 ports on my iMac, and file transfers are at the painfully-slow USB 2.0 speeds. I'd like to connect them in a way that would take full advantage of the speed capability of my Firewire 800 port. Thanks for any advice. Radiation Mac--Thank you for the information. MichelPM--Of course I know that there are external drives with Firewire 800, and I knew that when I bought my external drives (and all without having to do a bit of research).

That wasn't my question. And, yes, I do buy the USB versions because they are cheaper.

I'm using these drives for long-term storage of data, so spending considerably more money to get Firewire drives would not make any sense at all. However, if there was an adapter that could allow me to connect all of my USB 3.0-capable drives to my iMac's Firewire 800 port and harness its higher speed (compared to my iMac's USB 2.0 ports), it would be worth spending money on such a device because it would work with every USB 3.0 drive I've bought or will buy. As to your last few sentences, I'm not sure what you're saying. I have a couple of Seagate Backups+ drives that came USB 3.0 enabled. But Seagate sells an adapter that swaps out the drives' USB 3.0 interface for a Firewire 800 interface. Because these are larger drives I have in continuous use, I bought the Firewire adapters, and they nearly doubled the transfer speed to these drives. Unfortunately, this is not possible.

A little research on your part would've revealed that FW 800/400 drives are available. Google's your friend. You can buy hard drives that have FireWire 800/400 connections on them. Three that come to mind is LaCie OWC (macsales.com) Mercury Pro line of hard drives. I have found, in my experiences, that most users buy USB drives because they are cheaper. USB drives do not have a consistent, continuous streaming of data that FireWire drives have.

In real life, this tends to make FireWire drives data throughput faster. That is why drives with FireWire connections tend to be more expensive. Radiation Mac--Thank you for the information.

Because these are larger drives I have in continuous use, I bought the Firewire adapters, and they nearly doubled the transfer speed to these drives. I realize this is all somewhat off topic, but I had to say something to clarify the statement that ' the items listed for the Seagate drive are for that drive only'.
