Any problems with T.C. Konnekt interfaces?

+++++++++Yes, I got a Konnekt 24D last week and had problems with my MBP (Agere chipset)! I can't connect the audio interface (FW 400) and External HD (FW 800) at the same time, the TC freaks out!
so i'm using the external HD via USB2 (but i heard lots of times it is defintely not recommended for audio, could someone tell me why?)

so i'm gettin' an expresscard FW apiotek with a TI chipset, apparently that's my only way out! that's waht they told me at TC support!
It probably depends on which software you are using, but PT LE or MP just won't deal with a USB drive.

As far as the FW bus goes, will your interface work with the Agere chipset without a drive connected? If so, I would use your express card port for an eSATA drive. Much faster than FW. If not, then do what you are doing and you should be OK.
