I purchased this card after my previous card suffered an untimely death. This card is twice the capacity of my old 4GB Kingston CF card and it is less than what the Kingston cost. from Amazon.com Wonderful card that's not so fast (but fast enough) at a reasonable price. I have a 4,8 and 16GB (all RiData) at 233x's, I'm a Pro, and the cards have worked quite well with not a single problem and thousands of shots. from Amazon.com Pros: Wouldn't boot after trying to install XP and Windows 7. I think maybe not bootable. from Newegg.com Pros: Fast card, works with my old Canon Rebel XT 6.1MP DSLR camera. No glitches. from Newegg.com Pros: Have been using this card with my Olympus E-410 for several months with no problems. Had seen some bad reviews on another site but have not had any problems. from Newegg.com Issue # 1: 233x is the READ speed, as opposed to write speeds. I contacted the manufacturer and the WRITE speed is only 16MB/sec. from Amazon.com Pros: Been using this card with my D200 for about a year and never had one issue with it. Shot a few weddings and it performs as expected. from Newegg.com Pros: I GOT THE CARD THE NEXT DAY!!!! Granted I live about ninety miles from Newegg but that is fantastic service. from Newegg.com I own 2 of these for about 5 months now. Have never had any problem losing pictures like the others indicated. I use Canon 40D and download onto my iMac OSX Leopard via a card reader(firewire). I do download the photos on the same day I shoot. from Amazon.com I got attracted by the 'Lightning Series' tag, thinking [wrongly] that it will somehow help me reach the max rated speed that I need when shooting bursts. I get 6 frames per second all right, but after you leave the camera unused for some time, with this cf card in it,, camera or card reader cannot read any more some of the pictures youve taken. from Amazon.com
