I believe USB 2 is technically faster but only in Peak bursts. Firewire can maintain a sustained data rate over a longer period of time.\n\nI have had problems with certain firewire hard drives with video so make sure you check up on the specific drive you are purchasing. Make sure your drive is at least 7200 rpm. I built my drive with a ADS firewire USB2 enclosure and a Western Digital hard drive. it was simple and has been dependable, and if it fails I can get an inexpensive drive and replace it. Worked for me.\n\nTony

It would all depend why you are making the video. Who are you making it for. It helps me to be more creative when I make things for people I care about.
