Safe to connect/test old controller card on new motherboard?

[deuxm]

Is it safe to test if a 10 year old PCIe controller card works on a new motherboard without damaging anything?

The reason is that I want to test that cards specific T.I chipset, if it works along with the new motherboard, for a firewire device I still wanna use on my new build.

It have PCIe x1, and there are PCIe x1's on the Asus z370-a.

It should be fine. But it will need a driver update. It may not be compatible with Windows 10.

Its this card, LaCie Firewire 800

It does work on my Windows 7 64bit comp, but there are no drivers for it. I will try it out with my new system when i've built it.

Thanks
