Dane Elec 256 MB Compact Flash Card

Chip works like a charm holds several hundred digital photos.

This compact flash card works great with my old Olympus SLR Digital camera (either we had to use the SmartMedia card---which was impossible for me to find an adapter to communicate with new computers---or use a compact flash card since we could no longer directly connect the camera via an old USB-type cord connection). I was able to continue to use the camera because I found this card. I have not had any problems with it and with an adapter, I can transfer its files to my computer. Much cheaper than buying a new camera as it works very well despite being older (the storage media have changed since we bought the camera obviously). Just what we needed in a compact flash card!

We bought a second one for 'back up' in case something happens to our current card.

I had a 256mb card used in a Linux firewall, and it failed recently. At least half the card is unreadable all the sudden. I do have backups though! :)

Since the write performance was lousy, I setup ram disks to take over the busy areas that see the most activity. Essentially, only /etc /bin /sbin /usr/sbin and /usr/bin were read/write on this card (nearly no write activity). Changes were only committed on an as needed basis (ever week or so). Oh well...

the chord was just like brand new... actually i think it was brand spanking new! i just ordered the wrong one cuz it was for a scanner rather than for transferring pics from a camera to a computer.

The freight charge was nearly 1/2 the price of the card. I live on the east coast but I did not expect to pay almost 43% in freight. This was standard shippng, no expeditd service. Wen I asked for justifcation from the company, I was told too bad.
