anyone know if there is a way to resolve a conflict between a usb device and a firewire device? I have recently bought a WD mybook studio 1tb and found out it conflicts with my dell 2407 (the usb hub/card reader). This site helped me find the conflict - until i found it i didn't even know this was a possible issue. The guy here has the exact same problem as i do.
So is there anyway to sort this out? other than using usb to connect the HD? I have read that it's good to check with the manufacturers of devices when devices conflict, but neither WD or dell have a firmware upgrade for the devices mentioned (or i couldn't find them).
Also, if i return the HD and get a different one (i'm looking at a lacie now) am i safe to assume that the conflict will not reoccur
