Connecting FireWire 800 to USB-C Mac – Best Adapter Setup?

I need to connect a FireWire 800 drive to my MacBook with USB-C ports. I’m thinking of using:


1. FireWire 800 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter

2. Thunderbolt 2 to USB-C (Thunderbolt 3) adapter


Has anyone done this? Does it work well, or is there a better way to connect the drive? Any advice would be helpful!

MacBook Pro 16″, macOS 14.5
