A rather different definition of normal - but for a computer system I guess I shouldn't be that surprised :-) I'm not overly inclined to move to the 2.6 kernel at the moment as my experience with IEEE1394 under 2.6 has been very mixed. I think it's because it's easier to see what's happening "under the hood" with the 2.4 code. Since I gather you haven't seen any lost data from this, then I'm going to start filling up. Did a couple test captures today without any dropped frames, so I'm feeling a bit more comfortable that this is going to work. Assuming I bought some more drives in the future, would I be better off getting another firewire card or two, or going with USB 2?
