 Affordable 4GB CompactFlash Card Mar 18, 2005
By John Woods
"TObject"
This is not the fastest 4GB card currently available, but it's 4GB, and it's from a well-known and reliable manufacturer. It's a Type I card (slimmer than Type II), and it has a little three-position switch on the side.
If the device(s) were you'd be using this card support FAT32, you most likely will put the switch in position 1, and have the whole card formatted as one big partition. Alternatively, switch positions 2 and 3 allow switching between two 2GB partitions that can be formatted using FAT16 supported by older devices. Effectively the card works as two different 2GB cards with a flick of the switch in this mode.
Following information is for Nikon D70 camera owners who want to use this CompactFlash card with their camera. I purchased this card to use with my D70 camera. It seems to work fine. I formatted mine as a whole 4GB in FAT32 mode. Initially the camera did not want to format the card using the "two-button" mode, but formatted all-right using the on-screen menu. You may want to check to make sure your camera has the latest firmware.

Great for my dSLR! Feb 10, 2006
By Emil
I bought this card to use with my Nikon D70 (strange, only D70 owners seem to be giving reviews for this card) The camera can see entire size without problems. I don't want to call this card Fast as it's a relative term. For my uses it is quick enough and I simply do not need a faster card. I have 6 mega pixel camera and here's the timing I got from this card. The writing speed of this card is about 2.5 MB/sec. What does this mean? My maximum resolution JPG images are about 2.5MB on average. So with this card I can shoot continuously 1 frame/sec till the card runs out of space. But the thing is, the fastest my camera can write is about 1.5 frames/sec, which is very close to the max speed of this Sandisk card.
So, you've got to ask yourself a question: Do I feel I need more speed?

Perfect addition for my Nikon D70 Aug 16, 2005
By Christopher Erickson
Formatted card using camera menu and have had no problems with the card in camera or in my Averatec XP-Home laptop. The D70's image buffering is very good so card feels just as fast as all of my other various CF cards in my D70.
I suspect I will be ordering a couple more 4GB CF cards soon!

 Stopped working after 1,500 pictures!!!! Feb 27, 2007
By Zelda
The price and some positive reviews led me to purchase this item, but after only about 1,000 pictures, all I got was corrupted data. I had the card professionally tested to ensure it was the card and nothing wrong with my camera. It definitely showed the card was the problem. Luckily, I had recently done a download. Won't trust my pictures to this brand again!
