I'm using this with my macbook pro. I looked around a lot because the macbook only has 2 USB ports, so I wanted something I could plug in somewhere else. The Firewire 800 is fast, and it powers the drive KINGSTON FLASH MEMORY, so no carrying around another power pack.
The drive comes with all the cables you will need firewire 800, 400, USB, KINGSTON FLASH MEMORY and a optional power cord if you have an older laptop that might not be pushing enough amps through the USB (ie. you may have to plug 1 USB KINGSTON FLASH MEMORY in for the data, and 1 for the power).
It was plug and play for me. No installing of drivers KINGSTON FLASH MEMORY or any other monkey biz. Just started backing up data.
