Protools5LEGuy,
Hmmm… maybe this can get you more inputs as an ADAT slave for a super cheap price ! We talked about the Presonus Firestation in the past, but is suffered as interface due to bugs with it's Mlan implementation. I would like to add it here as an ADAT slave (no drivers necessary). Set it up just like an octpre. it has word clock In BNC and eight channel ADAT light pipe I/O and also some pretty good sounding Pre(s) as I remember… also adjustable gain on the line stuff !
Firestation Specs: http://www.presonus.com/products/FIREstation/features
ebay usual price (less than $125)

Forgot it also has a real tube in pre-amp:
I think this counts as the best "bang for the buck" ADAT slave if it works as imaged in your setup

The Firestation includes two preamps which are switchable between solid-state and tube driven. That's right: inside the hi-tech outer skin of this beast lurks a real 12AX7 vacuum tube, for adding "greater warmth and a richer sound
