Works great-as expected!

This sped my video editing while allowing proper connection to an external drive. I'm ready for anything video now!

Belkin FireWire 6-port Hub

(5 out of 5) by William F. Stevenson on Jul 6, 2008
The Belkin Hub was just what I needed. My MacBook Pro just didn't have enough fire wire ports. The Belkin was VERY easy to set up and I have had NO problems with it.

Best of the bunch

My iMac only had one firewire port and, since I'm running a hard drive with it, I needed another port for use importing videos and stills through my firewire card reader. This does the trick nicely.

DO NOT BUY!

(1 out of 5) by Carmine T. Guida on Apr 25, 2007 (NY, NY)
I bought this hub less than 2 months ago. It has stopped working! If I plug it in, it is no longer powered.

DO NOT BUY THIS P.O.S.!!

MAC USERS BEWARE

(1 out of 5) by J. Dattoli on Dec 21, 2006 (New Jersey, USA)
I rate the Belkin 6 port hub a zero. I installed exactly as instructed to my G5 tower. Plugged in 3 external hard drives and an iSight camera. Not one device showed up on my desktop and iSight didn't work at all. I tried a different firewire port on the G5 still nothing.

To boot, the port screwed up my hard drive. I couldn't shut down or restart the usual way. When I finally got the G5 restarted my menu bar was missing. It took several shut downs and restarts to make things right.

Don't take a chance with your computer
