Excellent product for converting from 6-pin connections found on most desktop computers and the 4-pin found on most laptop computers. I searched locally for a 4-pin to 4-pin cable to no avail. Most electronic stores I went into did not stock 4-pin/4-pin cables, only 4-pin/6-pin, so I ordered this unique adapter. I did think it was pricy for only one connector though. Originally, especially with the pic shown, it appears that you are getting two connectors which is what I anticipated. Wrong! There is only one adapter that comes with this item packaged. It works great though and can be used to connect your portable hard drive to a laptop especially if yours has the 4-pin connector like my Dell Inspirion 1526. Also, the 4-pin is essential for your connection of most Mini-DV Camcorders (4-pin) to your laptop computer which has 4-pin. Just insert cable into adapter, then the adapter into your laptop....and your in business ! The price isn't bad when you consider the alternative though...It Works !

If I could give 2.5 stars I would... this BARELY deserves a 3 star rating. This device worked okay at first, but after several uses, the connection from the 4 pin to my laptop began to loosen to the point that I had to prop up the adapter to prevent the weight of it pulling it down and losing the connection. I used it to transfer videos from a mini-dv camcorder to my laptop. As long as I propped it up, the transfer was fine

Unfortunately, I bought the wrong adapter, but this seems to be a good, cost-effective piece. (Cheaper to keep than to mail it back!)

This 4 to 6 pin adapter works perfectly, fits snugly, and is a must have for anybody using Firewire. It seems like you never know when you're going to run into a device, external hard drive, or anything else that has Firewire and find yourself missing the only type of cable you need to hook it up. With this adapter in my traveling arsenal of cables and adapters, I've never had a Firewire dilemma I couldn't solve. Get one!

Picture shows this adapter as a plug-type adapter for 4 pin - 6 pin IEEE 1394 FireWire. What I received was a foot-long cable-type adapter.The received item worked perfectly fine, but is made of a very thin, fragile looking, wire.I had specifically ordered this product as pictured so that I could use my strudy FireWire wire that came with my harddrive, and to reduce the amount of space necessary to cable up my harddrive.I hope the received wire survives the mobility (transporting, setting up, break down, transport again) requirements I have for my harddrive.
