HDR FX1 recurring problem

   :( The firewire port of my Sony HDR FX 1 is inoperative, since connecting the camera to a Firestore FS-4 direct-to-edit harddrive recorder, that was connected to the mains power at the time. I do not believe that the Firestore device caused the problem, since it too is now inoperative. I have had a similar problem previously, after downloading video to my desktop computer via a 6-pin to 4-pin firewire cable. This required sending the camera to Sony for repair. I am reticent to have the camera repaired again without getting to the root cause of the problem. I have not had any problems with my desktop computer and portable hard drives that operate off the same mains circuit, but suppose a power spike is still a possibility. There were no thunderstorms at the time. Has anyone had similar problems, or can anyone offer suggestions?
   Muchas Gracias
