Firewire drives and most devices are easily replaced, I agree. All of my hard drives are USB-C SSDs. The huge problem for people in my situation is when it comes to Firewire scanners. I own a Minolta Dimage Scan Multi Pro to scan my negatives. This is still one of the finest scanners after all these years. Not all of us are ready to drop our investment in and love for film cameras and scanners. Previously I was excited about MacOS26 but now must forget about upgrading. True, the death of Firewire was long inevitable, but the current crop of film scanners (probably also under threat) is not as good as the admittedly ancient Firewire scanners.
