This is going to sound like an odd request, but I was wondering if anyone knew of a USB PCI/PCI-E card that has 7 USB ports and an interal firewire header?

I have a case that has a firewire port, but I dont have a header for it on my motherboard. I'd rarely (if ever) use the firewire port, but I'd like to get it working. However, I need more USB ports, and dont want to waste space on the backplate of the card on ports I'd never use.

If there's no such card, perhaps provide the best ratio of USB ports to Firewire ports? Thanks for your help.

I know of no card with 7 USB ports and an internal Firewire header. The common number for combo cards is 3 USB, 2 Firewire externals, and an internal header for each. If you need more USB ports, connect a powered hub to one of the externals.
