This card looks good to me too: http://www.amazon.co.uk/StarTech-Profile-1394a-FireWire-Adapter/dp/B0002XMZOO/ref=pd_sim_computers_4?ie=UTF8&refRID=0N8GZW69SKMFSSBSFYF3
It has the smaller firewire port which is exactly that I currently use on my Thinkpad.
As for speed I tried to do some calculations. I am transferring a mini DV tape which has 12 Gb of footage in about 1 hour. If I calculate correctly (1210248/3600) then this means that the speed is roughly 27Mbs and so 400 Mbps would be more than enough.
