I've just sold my PowerMac G4, and with it went all of my connectivity with older drive interfaces!!

I have a perfectly good FireWire 800 port that I don't want to go to waste on my pretty MacBook Pro, but if I have to settle *big sigh* I'll use USB -.-'

I'm wanting to be able to connect IDE (2.5") PATA (3.5") I and/or E SATA to my Mac so I can edit information on the drives, of course. I'm not sure, but I would say that having SCSI connectivity options would be a plus.

Is there a known and revered multi-adapter out there? FireWire 800 preferred. I'm able to find only IDE to USB and SATA to IDE and such, but I can't find any direct adapters for FireWire. There are docking stations and cloning toasters, but is there one that would allow me to connect all of these interfaces?

Thanks!
