Works flawlessly, November 30, 2007

Shawn DuncanI used this cable to connect my desktop Mac to a NewerTech external drive. It works without a single problem.
misleading advertising, October 21, 2007

This particular product was advertised on the same page as a Western Digital external hard drive, giving you the impression that the hard drive didn't come with its own firewire cable. Then Amazon offered that you could purchase both for a special price as a "Better Together" purchase.
So I purchased the item, only to find out it was not needed. Then, when I shipped it back, I got docked for miscellaneous fees -- all without a way to explain why it was being returned. Needless to say, I'm not very happy with this experience.
Great!, January 3, 2007

Finally, a Firewire cable that is long enough to plug into the back of your Mac and have easy access at the front of your working area!
Great product.
