[DuoList] Re: CompactFlash: is 8MB/sec read 1.2MB/sec write fastenough? (Gene Osburn) (Brandy)

[Gary F. Daught]

Greetings. Hmm, does this suggest a limitation? I was thinking about  
a 1GB CF card. But the specs on this adapter says "supports...to  
512MB." Is 512MB an absolute limit for this type of adapter  
regardless of branding, or is this only a statement of official  
support from this specific manufacturer? Needless to say, before I  
purchase the CF card I will want to make sure the adapter supports  
it. (Incidentally, I went ahead and purchased the $5 adapter from  
Surplus Computers per Gene's recommendation <http:// 
www.surpluscomputers.com/store/main.aspx?p=ItemDetail&item=IMG10072>.

Thanks,

Gary
