It should have the cables in the packaging under the drive, both the special USB cable for the drive and a standard FireWire 800 cable.

Probably not. FireWire is either 400 or 800 Kbps, and both thunderbolt and USB 3 are faster.

The Firewire model I purchased from Amazon is an older model that is being closed out. The newest model from WD is USB 3.0 and the newest iMacs are USB 3.0. My iMac is Firewire 800 and USB 2.0. I am very pleased with the WD drive and I use the Firewire cable(supplied) and the Firewire 800 port on my Imac.

Mine says 2.0 next to the port. So does the current product image. I bought mine some time ago and the specifications might have changed. I didn't measure the USB speed but I did measure the FireWire 800 speed and got 500 Mbs/sec not 800. Of course there might have been a variable that I might have ignored.

Don't know the answer to the first question but it is bootable, but I was only able to boot via USB, not FireWire.

The drive will work with a USB3.0 to USB2.0 cable. I didn't have a Firewire800 to USB2.0 cable, so I can't test that for you. These drives have all-metal casing and a very solid feel. I own two which are in my briefcase to store files (especially photo and video shoots) for which I don't have room on my laptop hard drive. I recommend.

No, the cable will not be included, it will have to be purchased separately, unless you can find one that probably came with your motherboard. Nothing else except the hard drive is included in the box.

Not sure where to get one but it does have an eSATA port and 2 Firewire 800 ports you can use also. I would email the support at G-Tech for assistance.

Yes, it has an e-SATA connection, in addition to 2 FireWire 800 ports and a USB 2.0 port.

Both are Firewire. There were 6 and 4 wire connections, the 6 wire carried power. It was sort of the defacto serial protocol for digital video for awhile. It is too bad the n ewer compouters no longer include it and you have to buy a separate PC board. Nonetheless, the ends are both Firewire and can be used as DV or data

I think the E3-RK includes a firewire swap-out card as well as newer HD (probably with 32 MB buffer?). I believe that there is also a new firmware, but you can probably download this from the seagate webiste.

All that is in the box is the HDD enclosed in anti static wrapping. No cables or instructions, the drive requires formatting once installed inside your machine.

The drive description did not state that it came with any cables. It was a bare drive.

well, yes but with some qualifications. First you need a compatible 2.5 inch drive enclosure, if you have an esata port on your motherboard, that would be the best option. If not, USB 3.0 would be next best. Be aware that this is a very high performance hard drive, and either of these options may not allow it to perform to its potential. There are also both thunderbolt and firewire connectivity options, but they are not as common.

This device has three interfaces. A single USB3.0 interface, and two Firewire 800 interfaces.Firewire 800 can connect only to Firewire 400 or Firewire 800.

If you go to rog.asus.com...four Super-Speed USB 3.0 ports, HDMI, mini-DisplayPort, VGA (d-sub), Gigabit Ethernet, an SD/MMC slot and 3.5mm headphone and microphone.no firewire. the mini-display port is NOT thunderbolt capable, but does support HDCP and DVI.
