Belkin 2 Port FireWire 800 ExpressCard Adapter - 2
Why ExpressCard? ExpressCard, the new standard destined to replace CardBus, effectively quadruples the amount of available computing bandwidth. This results in faster music downloads, smoother streaming video, and lightning-fast access to mass-storage devices. The Belkin FireWire 800 ExpressCard offers the perfect solution for users who want to add a fast FireWire port to their notebook computer. The Card is designed to take advantage of the additional bandwidth and features provided by the new ExpressCard I/O interconnection standard. Now you can stream movies and download video from your camcorder to your hard drive simultaneously - without worrying that your computer will freeze, crash, or slow down to a trickle. The ExpressCard future-proofs your notebook computer with technology so advanced that it exceeds the processing-speed capability of many devices currently on the market. Installing the ExpressCard now will give you device-upgrade expansion room for many years to come. more

works well
I like this card in general. My only complaint it that the connection to my MacBook Pro doesn't feel very secure. If the card gets pushed in while connected it will unmount. Other than that it works perfectly.

Belkin Firewire 800 ExpressCard doesn't work with Windows Vista on Thinkpad T61 or Windows XP on Thinkpad T60
