Question Which power supply for FireWire peripherals connected to an ExpressCard ?

Hello,

I want to connect either my disk drives or my sound card to a Belkin FireWire ExpressCard. However the card needs to be powered itself to give power to the peripherals. There is a plug for a power supply on the side of the adapter but without any inscription. Belkin doesn't give any information in the documentation and the company's support doesn't answer to my request for information.

Any idea about the power supply needed ?

No one using this kind of setup, even with another brand of ExpressCard ?

Check out OWC. I remember I bought a wall wart psu there for my FireWire express card.

Thank you operaman.

Here's the link for the product from OWC.

OWC OWCSDAC5V 5V AC Power Adapter for PCMCIA in stock at OWC

So the specifications here are 5 V / 2.0 amp.
