     I own a saffire 6, which is a lower model..

    BUT I notice that is firewire.. so you chipset maybe problematic , if it is NOT "texas instruments" , so be aware you may need to budget for a decent firewire card.. I assume you have one already

    the motu does both firewire and usb2 , so thats good.

    it's hard to advise.. except to say look at where will you be in 2 years.. will you have out grown the soundcard .e.g. you need more inputs etc.

    it depends on what you need it for, which comes into it. e.g. I don't use a lot of live sources , it's all inside the box.. so i don't need many inputs
