Hi Donald,

I use a Ratoc card with 8.6 with no problems, but I had to install the 
Firewire 9.1 drivers by hand on top of MacOS 8.6 so that the computer 
could recognize all my peripherals. Otherwise my EZQuest burner  and 
such refused to come up. As for drifting extensions I really have no 
idea as I use 8.6 exclusively on my 2400c. The only Firewire problem I 
had was that the system would freeze when doing large data transfers. I 
tried a new Ratoc card and the problem was gone. Therefore MCE swapped 
the malfunctioning card and all has been great ever since.
