Topic: Fireface 800 with new Dell laptop

Can someone tell me the best (cheapest/most reliable) way to use Fireface 800 with new Dell Vostro 7620 laptop together? I'm willing to purchase additional hardware to make it work - need to know what to get. I do NOT want to upgrade the FF800 as there is no value in doing so. It does everything I need. Just need a laptop with more horsepower for mixing work.

Re: Fireface 800 with new Dell laptop

The only thing I know is the Apple adapter Thunderbolt to Firewire, it cost a lot and there is no guarantee for success.
May you buy and send back when fail...?
