recommended that you use the FireWire interface
unless you are using a G5 or are running Mac OS
10.2.8 or later on a computer with a Hi-Speed USB
2.0 PC or PCI card. All versions of the Mac OS
before Mac OS 10.2.8 do not support the transfer
rates of Hi-Speed USB 2.0, and all data transfers will
be made at the slower USB 1.1 rates.
