Ultimately they both probably have the same flash chips inside of them |
| 13 |
so if your main concern is reliability, I don't think it matters. |

|
| 15 |
If your concern is performance, CF seems to be used in more |
| 16 |
"professional" applications and more high-speed CF cards are readily |
| 17 |
available. |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
In either case I would suggest avoiding the cheap no-name brands. |

Sandisk Extreme Pro is likely the fastest card you can buy (of either |
| 21 |
CF or SD form factor), it is available up to 100MB/sec write speeds, |
| 22 |
but of course your card reader/host needs to support speeds like that. |
| 23 |
Sandisk also routinely has more than 10x the random I/O performance of |
| 24 |
most of the other brands which is important when using it on a |
| 25 |
computer and not in a linear recording device (photos/video). |
