Data point:
I use an ACOM portable drive that (I'm fairly sure) uses the same USB/Firewire interface chip-set.
It sometimes has trouble being discovered on my COMPAQ Presario Lap-top using USB, and sometimes has the same trouble on Firewire using Linux-2.4.26 drivers. But once it is mounted on either systems I don't have any trouble.
