I have a Canon Digital Rebel XT with a 2 GB compact flash II card.
The card can download images to my computer at about 4-6 MB per second, on my USB 2.0 port. This is 10 times slower than what USB 2 has to offer.
Now obviously the bottleneck must be the CF card itself.
On this page, there is a list of CF II card speeds

It seems as if ~ 4 MB / sec is top of the line, on this chart. And that's what I have then. My question: anyone know of anything faster?
Is there a CF II card that could max out the USB 2 port? (60 MB / sec)?
Is there a CF II card that could max out a Firewire 800 port??*(100 MB / sec)?
I really doubt it... but the real question is what is the fastest available read / write speed on a CF II card?
Thanks!
