Unfortunately, it sounds like the logic board will need to be replaced. It's a pretty expensive job — the part alone can be $400–$800. Good luck! I’m sorry to hear that!

Basically, FireWire is faster than USB. The difference can range from 10% faster to about 80 times faster, depending on which version of FW and which version of USB. The current version of FW is about twice as fast as the current version of USB. LOL!
