Use a PCI FireWire card for selective device startup
Authored by: BrentT on Aug 06, '03 10:26:33PM

I got a refurbished FireWire card from Belkin for $7! It worked without needing an extra driver. However, the card kept my G4 from going into deep sleep. The monitor and drives would go off, but the fan kept going. I guess I needed a card with a driver that allowed deep sleep. But if you don't mind that issue you can't beat the price!
