First question can a firewire 4 pin outlet or cord transfer data at
800 Mbps ever?
I know it is also dependant on the external devise whether it can
achieve 800 mbps rates but can 6 pin devices transfer at 800 Mbps? Or
does the connection have to have a 9 pin at each end and a 9-pin cord
for external hookup?

Also why do some internal PCI (PCI-E) boards have an optional 12V
internal connector for power from PC power supply? Is that when a
large number of external devises are being all hooked up to the
firewire buss?

And is firewire 400 about the same speed as USB 2.0 so if I have a DVD
burner or external ATA hard drive attached to one or the other is data
transfer going to take about the same amount of time?
