Winx64

This is very cool. I decided after checking out the USB drive this morning that I would check out my firewire drive this afternoon. I plugged the drive in, ran the "Disk Management" MMC snapin to assign a drive letter and there is was. That was such a cool thing. This worked on Win2k3 for x64 build 1289, aka RC1.

This works for the same reason the usb drive worked -- because there are standards in this area that allow MSFT to write one driver to support an entire class of hardware.

This drive didn't work on previous versions of Win64 for x64. it does now, so I am happy. :-)
