The Mac Edition of the Iomega eGo Blackbelt has two FW800 ports (as do some other disks Apple sells in it's online store), so you could theoretically daisy chain them.
But how many bus powered devices can you actually daisy-chain on one Firewire port on this iMac (should be the 2009 21" model) or any current Mac?
Question about
How many bus-powered FW800 disks can you daisy-chain on an iMac?
The number would vary based on the Mac and the power requirements of the various FW800 devices. I haven't found a specification stating a number anywhere for FW port power rating.
