Kingston 266x CF card

Kingston’s latest lineup of CF Ultimate cards are noticeably quick on their feet. The devices, which are available in 2GB, 4GB, and 8GB sizes, sport write speeds of up to 266x (40 MB/sec), which Kingston claims is “twice the minimum sustained write speed previously available in the Ultimate line.” Additionally, users can look forward to the included MediaRECOVER software that comes bundled in, and the lifetime warranty should allow heavy clickers to rest a bit easier. But these bad boys will run you $83, $144, or $280 depending on size, so unless you’re desperate for the speed and you have the right device that will make use of these don’t look for it.

Kingston, you need to throttle even more… the SanDisk guys are in 45 MB/sec :)
