[Eug]

FireDino reviewed. (Japanese, but babelfish is your friend.)

Godzilla invades USA.

I got it at FWDepot, but you can also get it at Charismac.

Thx. I share the CD-RW and the DVD-RAM/-R drives between my XP box and my Mac laptop via Firewire.

Got this from Charismac:

Firewire Dino Requirements:

Firewire (1394) capable computer
Must know how to dial 9-1-1 in case of emergency

Disclaimers:
*Charismac claims no responsibility for broken personal or business related property should Firewire Dino go on a rampage. As always, a clean and fed Firewire Dino results in a happy Firewire Dino.

LOL

Do I really dare to ask what you paid for that?

 

[TheVrolok]

That's fantastic.

For a hub, way too much... US$75.

 

[TuxDave]

O...... M..... G..... I thought I was the only person who would do stupid things like that.

 

[SSP]

That looks pretty cool.

 

[Eug]

More info.

 

[SagaLore]

Is there an anatomically correct female edition?

 

[Eug]

Uh no.

So, how long before they're sued for diluting the Godzilla trademark?

Man do I want one of those. And I only use two firewire hard drives...

Technically it's called "FireDino".

The irritating thing is it doesn't come with a power supply. I tried my PS from my other hub with it, and the mouth lights up but it won't provide power. Nowhere on the box does it say what AC adapter it needs.

Oh well, anyways it works fine as a non-powered hub. It's better having a hub than using daisy chaining. My Firewire optical drives don't work at all for daisychaining unless they're turned on. I got sick of turning on one drive higher up in the chain to use the rest of the chain, and the hubs solve that problem.
