Hey guys, I saw a couple other threads about this but non really answered my question.
I'm moving out for college soon and I'll be living in a dorm=downsize.
Anyways, I don't have a firewire port on my laptop but I do have an ExpressCard/54 Slot (also supports ExpressCard/34). I already have a firewire interface(Echo Audiofire4) so I'm looking at an expresscard 34/54 firewire card so I can use them together. I realize its imperative that I get one with a TI chipset.

What are your suggestions? Is it worth spending $100 on a card or are the $30 ones sufficient?
Here are some I was looking at:

Which do you guys recommend?

By the way, I'm running a HP pavilion laptop:
Intel Core i3 2.13GHz
500 GB HD @ 7200
4 GB of DDR3 RAM

I won't be doing more than 3 simultaneous track recording on Reaper, or more than 20 tracks total.

THANKS!
Evan
 
I have a custom build audio laptop by ADK and that came with a SIIG one. I don't know the model, but I'd presume anything with that name on it is going to be fine.
