Secure digital (SDHC) and CompactFlash cards are used for providing high storage capabilities to digital cameras, video cams, MP4/MP5 players and DSLRs among others. Team Group, in line with its reputation as a manufacturer of high-quality storage products, introduced three new storage cards, the CompactFlash 600X and two SDHC cards. The products are EoHS-compliant and equipped with the ECC error reporting and recovery technology for increased data reliability.

The old Class 6 SDHC at 6MB/sec can no longer meet the need of today's high-performance multimedia devices. Well aware of this, Team Group released the Class 10 secure digital card, which, besides being RoHS-compliant and equipped with ECC, can fulfill the requirements of HD picture quality and allow DC and DV users to more easily and quickly record their favorite moments. This is achieved thanks to the significantly superior speeds, compared with those of the Class 6, of 22MB/s read and 18MB/s write. The data cards are SD3.0-compliant and come in models of 4GB, 8GB, 16GB and even 32GB.

The second and more capable product, besides consuming very low amounts of power, the CF 600X uses the exclusive Turbo MLC technology and the CF4.1 high-speed interface in order to reach read/write speeds of 90.93 MB/s (400X). The card comes in a 16GB model that can handle the RAW high-resolution format with ease, and also in a mainstream 8GB model with read and write speeds of 60 and 55 MB/s, respectively.

The CF 600X cards reach their high transfer speeds thanks to the aforementioned Turbo MLC, which boosts the 4-channel transfer rate, and the Ultra DMA 0-6 mode support offered by the CF4.1 interface. This speed allows the cards to cope with even the rigorous 8-shot per second continuous shooting demand of DSLR photographers. Also, besides the error correction code already mentioned (ECC), the CF 600X cards are constructed with advanced leveling algorithms, which ensure data transfer reliability and overall increase the products’ lifespan.
