I haven't used it with FreeBSD but my Seagate 300G works very with
Macintosh. LaCie is another highly respected brand among Mac users.

There were some Western Digital Firewire externals on the market but
many Mac users had problems. With Apple as one of Firewire's parents its
pretty sad if a Firewire product doesn't work with a Mac.
