I was thinking of ordering one of those multi-interfaced external drives from OWC. What I want to do is have both my MB and MBP connected to it so they both have access. FW400 from the MB, and FW800 from the MBP. This possible? Or will there be conflicts?
 
I have a Lacie drive with similar options and I'm gonna have to say no. I haven't tried it but I really doubt the engineers had this in mind. If you're looking into having multiple computers have access to a shared drive look into NAS (Network Attached Storage) or setting up your own sever.
