Hitachi GST Microdrive 3K6 HMS360606D5CF00 (MD6GB-BP) 6GB 3600 RPM 128KB Cache CF+ Type II 1" Hard Drive

Pros: Large storage, very small unit. For a HDD, there's no noise. So it's really nice.

Cons: Very very slow. Can't use it for on the fly data transferring because it takes too long.

Other Thoughts: Overall, the drive isn't bad. Even though it's slow, it's perfect for my Pocket PC. I install all my programs on there, and save movies and stuff on there too. Keeps the memory free on the PDA, and everything runs really nice.

Pros: alot of space. fast transfer speeds.

Cons: broke down after a few days.

Other Thoughts: Drive was delivered in 2 days. Thanks Newegg. It worked fine in the begining and transfer rate was fast using a cf reader. Worked great in my Dell Axim x51v. After a few days though drive stopped working. Called Hitachi tech support and was told to fill out a rma form on thier website. Sent out the drive and got a reply today that they are sending me a neww one. Only took five days to get a new one sent. They have great customer service.

Pros: After only having the card for a day, I put a review up but didn't get to use the card in practical purposes.
I now have had the card for a few weeks and used it on a vacation. The card was more than enough for a week in the Caribbean on a cruise. I took over 1100 pictures with a 8.2 MP camera and still had over 100 left.

Cons: The only issue I've had is the write speed isn't as good as my RiDATA 80x card. But I wasn't shooting high action so I wasn't worried about that.

Other Thoughts: All in all, great card and great value for the $$$

Pros: Just got this CF MicroDrive today and I'm impressed. Packaging was awesome as always (thanks NewEgg!!) and arrived timely (ordered T-giving). I put the drive in my Canon 20D and did a quick format. After completed, 5.6 GB of usable space and the camera shows 999 pictures to go. During high speed shooting, I got about 32 pics continuous before the buffer was filled, just slightly less than my RiDATA 80X Pro. All in all, for the money this is more than enough card for my photography needs, especially while away on vacation and without someplace to store my 8.1 MP pics and having to go back and delete pics in order to take more. I'm happy!!

Cons: A little slower than a 80X Pro card, but I wasn't expecting it to be as fast. I was looking for space and this has exactly that.

Comments: I was reluctant at first to spend so much money on something so tiny, and then I realized that size matters. Small as this is in physical dimension, it is conversely huge in storage capability. I had no formatting problems, and I was able to use it as I would any cf card. Since I am using it in a JVC Everio video recorder, the vast memory is perfect giving me about an hour and a half of high quality recording. So I'd have to say that this has been money well spent.

Comments: I bought this for my Dell Axim X50v, and I am very very pleased with it. I loaded a ton of files and still have over 5GB left. Great for MP3s, games, video, etc. And as always, Newegg rocks!
