Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of LaCie 130822 FireWire 400 ANF 800 USB 2.0 PCI Card Design by SismoCustomer Review: HORRIBLE Summary: 1 Stars
ordered two of these cards. both were junk.
first one came from amazon and i installed it into my computer running vista ultimate 64 (maybe vista is the culprit haha). the computer blue screened and crashed before even getting into windows. took it out sent it back to amazon and computer was fine.
second one came in from amazon, i could boot up into my computer and the card worked fine but it slowed my computer down to a crawl and sometimes it couldnt even detect its harddrive to boot! i thought my harddrive was trying to give up its ghost!
lacie is a reputable company. but this particular product is bullocks. maybe youll have better luck. koodles to amazon for having an awesome return policy though! this card gets the fewest stars possible for wasting my time twice.
