Short answer is - Yes... and capable for data rates twice as fast as FireWire 400. Great for Target disk mode transfers (assuming other Mac has FW800) since noticeably speeds up such.

For instance: Can a Firewire 800 external drive be bootable? Does Target Disk Mode work with FW 800? Others?

Is FW 800 all that FW400 is but faster?
