Firewire for Inspiron 531

I have an Inspiron 531 and need to add a Firewire Card.  I assume this fits in the slot at the back.  Can anyone advise on what is compatible and where I will find installation instructions?

Any PCI 1394 cards such as this will work in the system. I would suggest you do a Google search and shop around they are not all that expensive.

 

The system does have and optional front panel 1394 connector if you get the flexbay. Shown HERE

If you are using Vista, make certain that any Firewire card you buy, is Vista

compatible.    :smileywink:
