I have put a 16GB Transcend CF card in a CF->IDE adapter and am using it in a G4 Mac Mini running OS X Tiger. To my surprise, this is considerably slower than the original IDE hard disk. Is this normal? I was under the impression that CF cards are faster than hard disks :-?
CF cards are slow. SSD's run Flash chips in parallel (like Dual Memory controlers on RAM etc...) in order to up the speed.
