External Firewire Drives aren't recognised via firewire Hub

Hey Hugh,
thanks!

so…

  1. could not check, if anything works, cause i just have 1 firewire device-> my seagate- (i have the UAD duo sattelite, but this will not at all work with a hub (see manual) so that this goes directly into my mac, then the hub into the 2nd firewire slot in the uad.
    2.my hub has external power
    3.dont know if i try to power…- it should work, because i feel and hear, that my external drive is going to work (the spinning or so inside), but it just wont recognise…
  2. seagate says it should work…but none of my two drives does…neither trhough a firewire or a usb hub.(i can choose if i ad the firewire or the usb adapter…)

so my general problem is:
using a firewire external drive and! a UAD Sattelite Duo with ONE Firewire slot on my MACbookPro
-ANYONE a solution for this particular problem?-

thanks,
jotw
