The IEEE 1394 Disk driver refers to a driver for external storage devices connected to a computer via the IEEE 1394 interface, commonly known as FireWire. IEEE 1394 is a high-speed interface standard, originally developed by Apple (also known as FireWire or i.Link), that is used to connect devices such as external hard drives, digital cameras, and audio/video devices to a computer.
The IEEE 1394 Disk specifically refers to the driver needed for external hard drives or storage devices that communicate over the FireWire (IEEE 1394) interface. This driver is required for Windows to recognize and communicate with the external storage device, allowing data to be read and written to it.
