It comes with a firewire cable (mini connectors) and an audio/video out cable (mono/encoded).

Correct. FireWire is only used for connecting a camcorder or external hard drive.

Rogelio, The model I ordered has a USB 3.0 port only with an on/off switch and a port for an optional external power supply. OWC also offers a bare external case available with USB 3.0 and Firewire 800 for 59.99. Hope this helps you!

Not compatible 'out-of-the-box', but there are plenty of cables available that will allow you to plug the firewire 400 device into the firewire 800 port. Of course, your firewire 400 device won't transfer at 800 rates.

No, it only includes a USB 3.0. Supposedly you can buy FireWire cables, but I have not seen them available anywhere. The end that connects to the harddrive has an odd shape, so generic FireWire cables won't fit.

Not enough info from you. What kind of cord is needed, firewire, usb or thunderbolt. I bought the thunderbolt for my new iMac which no longer has firewire.

It has both usb and firewire. Metal case looks good and drive performs well. Will not disappoint.

It did not come with FireWire, but there are cards that can add FireWire to the system.

This product (STBU500100) has a removable USB 3 adapter that plugs into a SATA II port. The firewire adapter is not sold on this product.

No it does not. I looked into a cord adapter, saw the reviews for several and actually went and got a PCIe Firewire card for my desktop

This drive comes with a Firewire cable, an eSATA cable and a USB 3 cable.It has two firewire ports, one USB 3 port, and One eSATA port. No Thunderbolt.

yes it does... the power to the drive has no effect on the firewire signal... however there is no power button on the device...so it will stay on unless you turn of the power to the adapter or unplug the power cable... the rest of the time it automatically sleeps depending on inactivity :)

I am not sure, but it does have 2 firewire connections. I have one connected to my computer, and the other connected to an audio interface. It works well for that.

Sorry, yes it does come with the USB cable. I thought this was for the WD TV live unit which does not come with the USB cable.

K. Meagher, A FireWire port is not currently a standard feature for this configuration. However, the system is easily expandable, allowing you to add such functionality.
