Connection option #4
- Connect to the same USB 2.0 source (built in
USB 2.0 ports, or a PCI/PCIe USB 2.0 card) using two cables - direct con-
nection for each bridge card.
Connection option #5
- This option allows you to use both a FireWire
800 and a USB 2.0 connection. Connect one cable from the FireWire 800
ports on either bridge card to the computer, and then connect the USB
2.0 connection on the opposite bridge card to the computer.
This allows you to maximize the performance, of the storage solution,
even though you do not have two identical interfaces.

FireWire 400 Connection
- same as the FireWire 800 connection op-
tions on the previous page - but you can use a FireWire 400 to 800 (9-6
pin) converter cable. This is slower, but offers a broader range of com-
patibility with different systems.
