1. I've used 3 firewire cards - the WD card, the SB-Link port on the
SB Audigy and most recently the Adaptec DuoConnect card (has 1394 && usb2).
All of them used the ohci1394 driver.
2. I'm only using it for a CD-RW drive, and it sure seems faster than the
old SCSI one I had internally. No quantifiable #'s for you.
3. Very.
4. No chain, but the device I've got is a QPS QueFire 16X/10X/40X CD-RW.
