I've never tried Firewire but I assume it does work out of the box. USB hdds do, you need to format them for Linux sometimes though.

Than that means, that if they do we won't need to format it for Linux, right?

Yeah, that's what I meant.. if Linux reads and writes on NTFS why should we format it for us to use it on firewire?
