First of all, Maxtor vs. Matrox is not a spelling error, it is the confusion of two very different companies.
Secondly, if you would prefer not to be mocked, you may want to slow down, and think about what you post. When you create one (or two or three) topic, you should ask yourself if they are plausible.
If someone told you we'd be getting atomic Macs that made coffee, and gave foot massages, would you post it? I hope not.
If someone told you that a protocol which is not a drive command protocol would be in testing for future Mac drives, would you post it? Apparently so.
I'm quite willing to admit that I don't know all. I don't resort to calling everyone an ******* when corrected. I believe in arguing a definsible position rationally.
You create a defensible position by extrapolating the future from reality. Holographic storage...makes sense. Molecular processors...makes sense. 10GHz Palladium porcessors...makes sense. FireWire as an internal drive control protocol...does not make sense.
In the time you spent writing your little diatribe, you could have researched you point, and come back with more information.
Instead, you started ranting. If you wanna waste your time throwing insults about, you're credibility further decreases. Insulting people is the behavior of adolescents, and the insecure. Are you one or both of the above?
Rumors are weighed on credibility...if you want to have any, you should calm down, research the feasibility of you topics, and present your ideas as imformation, free of idealism.
Now, as to why this is impossible:
FireWire is not a control protocol for drives. There is no such thing as a FireWire drive (just like there is no such thing as a USB drive). When you think of a FireWire or USB drive, you are talking about an ATA/IDE drive in a FireWire or USB enclosure. There are ATA/IDE, SCSI, and FibreChannel (a SCSI subset) drives. If someone were working on a FireWire drive protocol, even the Apple secret police could not keep it quiet, as Seagate, Maxtor, IBM, Fujitsu, & WesternDigtial woud all help design the spec.
