 Works, but has some limitations July 8, 2008
Sandip Bhattacharya (Bangalore, India)
One of the reasons I bought this card, apart from capturing DV from my camcorder, was to use it with the Canopus 77010150100 ADVC110 Converter. The Adaptec card has a 6 pin socket (unlike the 4 pin one on laptops which have firewire port). This gave me the impression that it can supply power to the Canopus converter.
However it does not. The canopus doesn't light up and requires an external power supply if used with this adapter. The same converter works well with the 6 pin ports on desktops.
Camcorders work as they have their own power supply. I used it with my Panasonic GS330 and it worked well.
For those looking for Linux support, this product works with my Ubunutu Hardy laptop. In fact, I use this exclusively on Linux. It doesn't work out of the box though. After inserting it to the PCMCIA socket, you need to run "sudo modprobe raw1394" to load the kernel module. Make sure you are in the group "disk" before firing up the software to import the video.
I use Kino for importing DV, and Kdenlive for editing the video. Works well.
And yes, a cable was supplied with the card.
Works very well, a bit slow though April 25, 2008

The product works very well with my Lenovo T60. Its simple plug and play. Windows XP recognized it as soon as I plugged it in and it was ready to go in 2 mins. No additional installation was required. My only peev is that the transfer is very slow. It took a long time to transfer a 120 min DV tape.
Works as expected. April 12, 2008

The card does everything I expected of it. I'm able to transfer my movies from the camcorder to the computer. I'd recommend it.

Works fine; however, the package says that there is a cable included. There is NO cable. :(
 Great card - Awesome value December 26, 2007

Card does exactly what it's supposed to. Could download movie to my laptop from my video camera. At a smidge over $10 you can't beat the price. Definitely recommended for those needing a firewire connection to their laptop.
