Features
No support for 64-bit Windows OS!!! I have to use an old XP laptop to get files off the drive and transfer via network to get them on a my desktop machine.
WAKE UP ALESIS! We need drivers for Vista-64...
Manufacturer Support
Not good at all... basically told me too bad when I requested updated drivers.

"FIREPORT, piece of gear u need to have when owning an Alesis HD24"
It now has support for the mac, That's cool. When they have support for broadcast wave I'll go through the roof.
Sound
The Fireport is a great piece of hardware. But be aware. It doesn't use broadcast wave. And however the HD24 can record for hours and hours, don't make sessions longer than 1,5 hours or its impossible to bounce using this fireport.
For the rest? it simply works on a PC, and that's a whole lot.
Features
Support for broadcast wave would be awsome. (bouncing projects longer than 2 or 3 hours).
Cause FST and recording for more than 90 minutes is what the DM24 set it apart from de tascam MX2424 and the Mackie recorders
Quality
It's nicely build but, well, its more sturdy than ordinary computerstuff but not so awsome build as the HD24 wich gets a 10.
Value
Its something you need beside a HD24 when recording live
Manufacturer Support
One broke down, I bought another one, and however they wanted to replace it, they ran out of stock so I got my mony back. Thanks that I allready bought me one.
The Wow Factor
Its just gear I need.

Alesis HD24 FirePort 1394 Customer Review
I need something that would last as long as other equipment.
Sound
I have bought two fireports at different occasions.
I also have 1 HD24 which I use for 24tracks recording.
Quality
My fireports did't last.
Within short period (about a year+ for the 1st one and 3months for the 2nd one) they had spoilt.
