IF8Ci is ideally suited for tailgating interfaces such as removable-media drives CD-ROM, CD-R, CD-RW, DVD-ROM, DVD-RAM, tape drive, and hard disk drive. It allows IDE drives (Master and Slave) to be connected to FireWire 800 (IEEE 1394b) serial bus in a plug-and-play fashion. Both ATA and ATAPI devices are supported using the same firmware.

IF8Ci allows users to easily hot-swap IDE drive without interrupting the current operation.

IF8Ci provides the perfect solution for data backup and transferring of data between computers using IDE (ATA/ATAPI) devices. Benefits

End user can replace a slow & expensive SCSI device with a cheap & fast EIDE device. This allows peripheral vendors a unique opportunity to continue the advantage of the ATA/ATAPI existing market advantages while presenting FWB-IDE01 into the rapidly expanding FireWire800 (IEEE 1394b) markets.
