You bet. One of the first troubleshooting steps you should try when something isn't working the way it should is to check the "physical" connections, including power and data cables. Eliminate those first. A faulty firewire cable can cause a myriad of intermittent problems.

What are two other names for a firewire?
Firewire, also known as IEEE 1394 and i.Link
What is another name for IEEE 1394 Interface or Port?
The IEEE 1394 Interface or Port is also know by it's Apple Mac name as FireWire.
What provides support to usb and firewire on computers?

Does the Western Digital 2TB My Book Home Edition come with firewire and usb cables?
Yes, the Western Digital 2TB My Book Home Edition includes both USB and Firewire cables, as well as all other necessary accessories and power supply.
Is a firewire cable a standard component with most new computers?
No. Communication cables, printer cables and other cables have never been a standard component of computers. This is because the cable is specific to the device you will connect to the computer. The only standard cable is the power cable.
Where can HDMI cables reviews be viewed?
HDMI cables do not usually get reviews because they are not faulty and are inexpensive. Some HDMI cables may have reviews if they are specially made or are a specific brand with new features.
Suppose you learned that half of the patch cables that connect a workgroup of computers in the Accounting Department to a patch panel needed to be replaced due to concerns about faulty manufacturing?
I would replace them all... you will use a "wiring schematic" to identify the faulty patch cables.

What is the fastest transfer technology for external drives?
The fastest way to transfer files from your computer to an external hard drive would be with a firewire cable. They are much faster than USB cables.
Is USB 2.0 or Firewire faster?
The maximum speed of USB2 at 480M/Sec is a little quicker than Firewire 400 (IEEE.1394a) which runs at 400 M/Sec (hence the "400" bit of the name). In tests, however, FireWire 400 delivers a higher sustained transfer speed. Benchmarks suggest that hard drives connected with FireWire will copy information considerably faster than they would using USB 2.0. To achieve higher performance, FireWire requires additional circuitry in supported devices. This often makes FireWire more expensive than USB 2.0. Firewire 800 (IEEE.1394b) as the names suggests, has a peak speed of almost 800 M/Sec. Used primarily by PC musicians for recording and transferring multichannel audio at high sample rates and for digital video cameras and decks
