Which is the BEST Compact flash card to Buy

[whiteb]

Okay so if there is a concensus that Sandisk are the ones to go for, Was there any trouble with Sandisk not reporting as 'Fixed Disk' ?  Which i Believe is needed for them to act as an SSD ?

Also, did people buying Sandisk Compactflash, buy them on Ebay ? and did you seek out a 'Genuine Dealer' or take a punt with the Hong Kong sellers with a chance of getting Fake Sandisk ?

No funny issues with mine, they just worked.  I walked into Best Buy and bought them off the shelf.

Ahhh okay then from a 'Bricks and Mortar' store, so no issues with worrying about if they are genuine then.

Okay well i purchased 2x 4GB Sandisk Ultra from an Ebay seller (please do not groan)

He is advertising *GENUINE*, or double your money back.  thing is, I chose him as the Ebay lists him in the Compactflash guide or what ever it is, he *IS* listed as a GENUINE seller.

Shops round me are like $60 or more for ONE card, I got 2 for $50.

Needless to say, i will be engaging Sandisk to verify its authenticity. (I have been rather heavy on a few sellers lately).

Actually, out of the three Ebay list, he is the only one left actively trading.
