Device Controlling a FW400 Deck through FW800 Ports

[videoed]

Hi,

Just got a project that will require use of a deck that utilizes FW400 for device control.

My tower does not have 400, only 800.

Any advice?

Will a simple adapter suffice?

Thanks,

I've used an adapter like this.

There are also 6-pin to 9-pin Firewire cables and 4-pin to 9-pin Firewire cables for less than 10€.

thanks for the responses, i ended up just daisy chaining it through an external raid, so far so good, keeping fingers crossed

thanks,
