Connecting UR44 With OWC External Drive

  1. OWC FW drive for projects and connect it via FW 800 if you have that or FW400, depends on the OWC drive.

  2. Connect your UR44 to any USB ( I would probably grab a PCIe USB card just so my UR is on its own connection, I have my Motu MTPAV hooked up this way

  3. Daisy chaining the USB through the OWC, Im thinking no on that

  4. If I had your current setup I would simply FW both the OWC drive and the DIGI, daisy chaining FW gets finicky.
    Currently have OWC(Mercurey Elite AL Pro) drive connected via FW800 connector. My MR816 is connected FW800 to FW400 adapter from the Mac, NewerTech FireWire 9-pin (FW800) to 6-pin (FW400) Adapter

  5. You can use gender benders for the USB, adapters exist


    Thats what I would do.
