Comments about Belkin FireWire 400/800 9-pin to 6-pin DV Cable - 6 ft:
This cable permits connecting an old computer to a new hard drive. The computer has FireWire 400 ports, but no 800 port, and the drive is 400 compatible but has only FireWire 800 input ports. The cable is longer than some alternative brands, which is convenient if the two pieces of hardware are not right next to each other.

Comments about Belkin FireWire 400/800 9-pin to 6-pin DV Cable - 6 ft:
I almost threw away my old firewire peripherals when I discovered that the firewire 800 connector on my new computer wouldn't work with the firewire 400 cable for my DVD burner and external hard drives. This cable economically solves the problem and performs as expected.

Comments about Belkin FireWire 400/800 9-pin to 6-pin DV Cable - 6 ft:
I recently picked up an external DVD burner for my macbook pro because I had the famous failed superdrive. I could go on and on about how Apple ignores this problem but this cable keeps me calm.
Pros: works and connections are good
Cons: It is a little thinner than all of my other firewire cables but it still seems to be good construction since I'm not rough with my gear. I would imagine that it could get run over with your desk chair wheel and maybe damage it so don't use if you are planning on laying this on the floor with traffic. Not much more to say about a cable I suppose.
