Firewire?

judas101 · 2009-07-18 18:16:25

Hi all, I recently bought a new laptop and am wondering is it possible to use hardware that requires firewire despite not having a firewire port. I want to use a high quality soundcard for recording music. So far Ive been using USB interfaces. Thanks

you could get an express card with firewire connection assuming you have an express card slot
