Cords needed

Looking for a cord that will plug into one of these top ports and then usb into my laptop. Any help is appreciated. Prefer Amazon purchase.


Those look like IEEE 1394 “Firewire” ports. So a 1394 to USB adapter should do it. Plenty to pick from on Amazon. I have no recommendation for any specific brand.

@Carlosesta What device do you own and what does the User Manual show these ports are ?

What color are your USB ports so you get the right cord for the connection?
