Additionally, if you're a former Mac user who wants to migrate data, you can't use Apple's Migration Assistant with the Firewire adapter or even the Echo Express. This is because MA only supports firewire-to-firewire and thunderbolt-to-thunderbolt (USB isn't supported at all). The whole point of MA was to make moving from one machine to another transparent, so that all of your software and passwords are still recognized and usable. Effectively, Apple has sabotaged their own claim of seamlessness, meaning your choice is to create a disc image and transfer it from one machine to the other via USB 3.0.

You can mount the firewire disk with thunderbolt and the firewire adapter and then use the Migration Assistant to transfer data.
