Will this FireWire card work in a computer with the following PCI slots, all low-profile: * Express x1 * Express x16 * 32-bit 5v Thanks for your help.

This particular model is made for PCI legacy also known as 32-bit. In this pic is is the 5th one down http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PCIExpress.jpg There are other models which will fit the PCI express 1 which is a much smaller slot. Mostly the PCI express 16 is for larger video cards.

You will lose memory bandwidth performance, as the card will only be running at x1 slot bandwidth speed. It will definitely work, but you'll have to find out how much performance reduction you'll get running the card in x1 mode vs x16.

Hi Tom. For any card to work you need a couple of things: an available slot on your system board of the correct type and drivers that will allow the card to interface with your operating system. If you have these two things it "should" work. I don't know what mean by a "250 watt PCI card".

No. It is the wrong kind of connection. You need PCIE. This is PCI. After wasting money on this one, I bought the SIIG FireWire 2-Port PCIe (NN-E20012-S2) after this one. Works flawlessly on my 2012 PC running Win7.

This is a 6 pin to 4 pin cable. You should get a 4pin to 4pin firewire cable or your computer needs to add a firewire slot. The cable is much cheaper and easier providing that your computer has a firewire slot. http://www.amazon.com/Offspring-Technologies-Firewire-Discontinued-Manufacturer/dp/B0000DK7AI/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1417891943&sr=8-3&keywords=firewire+4pin+to+4pin Try that if you need a 4pin to 4pin. If your computer does not have a firewire port then you will have to either add a firewire card onto your desktop or laptop. For a desktop. http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-ExpressCard-Firewire-Adapter-EC13942/dp/B000RKUKMG For laptop without a DVI output or firewire. http://www.amazon.com/StarTech-com-ExpressCard-Firewire-Adapter-EC13942/dp/B000RKUKMG These are just examples of what you can use. There are plenty of good choices you can research and purchase. Just remind yourself that for video editing/transferring you will want a card that is reliable and backwards capable (1394a @400mb and 1394b @800mb) as I do not know what devices you will be using. I would advise against getting a firewire to usb adapter. They may work, they may not. For transferring video/audio a USB adapter may not be able to keep up to the demands. I hope this helps.

It should work on most modern AMD motherboards, provided that the motherboard has a free PCI express x1 slot.Note that this card will work on PCI express x4 / x8 / x16 slots as well. Plugging this into an x16 slot that is meant for a second graphics card may interfere with a primary graphics card connected to PCI express, as it may take lanes away from it (i.e. most motherboards will operate both x16 slots at x8 speed if they're both populated).

Dear Future Customer, You are correct. The HP Z220 comes with 2 PCI slots, one of which you can add a Startech PEX1394B3LP Firewire card. We sell these cards on Amazon. Simply enter the Mfg and Part number above. All the best from the Nube Online Team.

Did not work for me. My new HP w I7 processor and upgraded video showed an error message .. tried on another well equipped pc .. same result. Add the FireWire to your computer. Adapter cables never work for me.

It should work with that mother board."The x4 PCI Express interface is compatible with x4, x8, and x16 PCI Express slots"It should work fine in one of the PCIe x16 slotsIf your OS dosnt recognize it on its own, look for drivers here "http://h20566.www2.hp.com/portal/site/hpsc/public/psi/swdHome/?cc=us&cc;=us&l;ang=en〈=en&sp4ts.oid;=3367980&ac.admit;ted=1407859672125.876444892.199480143&quo;t;

It depends on your motherboard slot. It goes into the 16pci express slot. Open your computer and check what slots you have, and search on Google for "pci 16x slot" image.

Yes it is. Please refer to this link. At the bottom of the page is listed all the compatible operating systems.http://www.siig.com/it-products/firewire/firewire-400/pcie/dp-firewire-2-port-pcie.htmlIt is a great card, plug and play. No drivers to install. I have had no problems at all compared to other cards i have used.

Yes. To quote the PCI Express article in Wikipedia: "A PCIe card physically fits (and works correctly) in any slot that is at least as large as it is (e.g., an x1 sized card will work in any sized slot)." My own experience confirms this and I know I've used the card in either x4 or x16 slots previously.

This card works with either a 16 or an 8... as is explained in the description of the card --" PCI Express 2.0 (uses x8 or x16 slot)" so make sure you have a PCI express slot available.

This card does support the 6 pin Firewire connector. I don't know what a small form factor PC is.

No it does not. I looked into a cord adapter, saw the reviews for several and actually went and got a PCIe Firewire card for my desktop

Yes Yes, the PCI-E bus is a standard - the x1 to x16 indicates the number of lanes supported by the slot. You can get some good details from wiki: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PCI_Express To summarize for you - as long as the slot has more lanes than the card you want to install in it, it'll work. So, you can put a x1, x4, x8 or x16 card into a x16 slot. The reverse it NOT true - you cannot put an x8 card into a x1 slot, for example. Good luck!

No. Go to amazon site copy link and past to your browser. Scoll to bottom of page read the tech stuff discriptions. THis card requires a PCIe 2.0 abd a16 lane graphic slot on the mobo. PCI is not 16 lane. Note the "Express" in the nomenclature. my question to you is did you not read the specs or did not understand. Suggest you do more research on line on the difference between varions type of mobo slots and what they do or what they accommodate in a way of cards.
