You sure do! I still have a bunch of old Macs with that π
It was great for its time, but the DMA thing was always a double-edged sword: it was a lifesaver as you could connect devices like sound cards to laptops β CPUs weren't that powerful so USB was a bad option, but it was also a security breach.
Now it's obsoleted by Thunderbolt which is basically PCI Express and they've probably made it negotiable between devices, I wonder how it actually works though π€

@m0xee @futzle yes, but to exploit it first you need to find someone with a FireWire port lol
