On their current baseline "Lemur" model I see

That's sort-of "ugh" for connecting Firewire devices.  Concerning the
bandwidth, I think you'd need USB 3 (USB 2.0 nominally has 480mbps over
Firewire's 400mbps but reserves less for synchronous transfers and there
are other problems IIRC).

I have a Gazelle Pro 9 (Gaze09 model), vs the current gaze12 model.

Expansion 	

2× USB 3.0 Type-A, 1× USB 3.0 Type-C, 1× USB 2.0 Type-A, SD Card Reader

I don't know about reliable adapters, but I haven't looked.

I've got to try some. The only other option I would have would be to use it on one of my desktop systems, which aren't exactly very portable!
