| ->> I was wondering if anyone out there has had any experience daisy chaining a Lexar Firewire 800 card reader with a Sandisk Firewire 800 card reader. With one on the way, I've been trying to locate a second Lexar FW800 reader, to no avail. I have twice missed purchasing one by minutes in the last day. Any advice is appreciated. |

| ->> I've had good luck with daisy chaining hard drives through a Lexar FW800 reader, though I haven't tried a sandisk reader. It seems to work the same as all the other FW800 devices I've daisy chained through. |

| ->> I daisy chain a Lexar reader and a Hoodman reader, it works pretty well. I was going to link you to Amazon where i got my Lexar cardreader but it seems they've stopped carrying them. |

->> Ditto what Andrew said - but in my case I used a Delkin reader (which is the same as the Hoodman, actually).
Unfortunately, using the SanDisk FW800 reader in daisy-chain fashion yielded lockups. Use a second FW800 port if you have one. |
