The newly announced CompactFlash 5.0 specification supports capacities up to 144 petabytes.

The Nexto eXtreme ND2700 is a 320GB 2.5" SATA drive in an enclosure with two memory card slots, enabling the backup of most memory card formats - without a computer.

SanDisk’s new line of Extreme Pro CompactFlash memory cards prove that not all memory cards are created equal by offering 90MB/s peak read and write speeds – that’s double the performance of previous SanDisk high-end camera memory cards.

SanDisk has used the Photokina trade fair to announce a 12.5-percent jump in speed (now 45 megabytes per second) and the addition of a 16-gigabyte version to its Extreme IV high-performance memory card line.
