my brother just got a 30 gb video? and is giving me his 10 gb

it is mac formated and firewire

I have a pc with an audigy card (firewire)

I have downloaded eph pod and mac opener so I know I should be able to connect without formatiing the ipod if the firewire card works

it looks like the sb audigy is not quite firewire (sb1394?) any solution to that? will it work?

buy a new (used firewire card) or a usb cable

can this older ipod (I don't know which one (gen) it is) use a usb connectionby simply swaping to a usb cable.

I assume that if I can nonnect it with the firewire (ish ) on my audigy I am good to go with ephpos and mack opener.

I currently have no desire to use itunes so eph pod should be fine.
