Getting Started

What is FireWire?

Defined by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers

(IEEE), the 1394 High Performance Serial Bus (commonly known as

FireWire) is a standard for connecting devices to your personal

computer.

FireWire is one of the fastest peripheral standards ever developed.

With a capability of operating at up to 400 Mbps, FireWire interface

communicates fast enough to transfer digital video and audio in real

time.

Additional benefits of FireWire:

!IEEE 1394 and i.LINK™compatible.

!Hot plug capability that allows you to easily connect a new

peripheral device without turning off the computer.

!Automatic configuration, no device IDs or terminators.

!Cables are easy to connect, and can be up to 15 feet long.

!Allows connection of up to 63 devices.

FireWire products currently available include the latest hard drives,

CD-RW drives, Digital Video (DV) camcorders, scanners, and

printers. Western Digital’s FireWire PCI Adapter and our FireWire

CardBus PC Card enable you to connect devices like these directly to

your computer.

Look for Western Digital’s FireWire External Hard Drives, which

provides quick and easy large-capacity external data storage.

TIP: If you require additional

data storage or an external

hard drive, look for

Western Digital’s FireWire

Hard Drive at your favorite

retailer or WD’s online

store at:

store.westerndigital.com.
