Ok, Last question about COMPACT FLASH CARDS...

I know we need to use a Type II compact flash card. Now after searching on this site, its seems some manufacturers cards do not work for whatever apparent reason. Can someone please specify which ones work, and which ones are junk?
Type II cards by:
-Toshiba
-Sandisk
-Kingston
-Simpletech
-Magicstor
-PQI
-Transcend
-Lexar
-Microtech
----------------Any help: Greatly appreciated! God Bless!

Well I just tried SanDisk cards in 128 and 256 and they both work fine.

Crucial 256 works fine

"its seems some manufacturers cards do not work for whatever apparent reason"

Huh? I have not seen a report of a CF card NOT working, nor does a search turn up such a report.

there's a few posts on this forum by people saying their cards didnt work. from a few weeks ago.

the sandisk /lexar 128 and 256 you guys bought are all tipeII??? how much did you pay for it??

its a noname (TwinMOS) 265MB CF-Card and sometimes i cant load from it, the MPC seems to stand still, but after take out the card and put it in again it works correct then...

thats %&§$...

i got this of the akai site

ot this of the akai site

are those cards good or not?

If you take a look at the MPC1000 Ram and CF cards recommendations thread, you will see that even type 1 cards work.

The manual states that any (ie type 1 or 2) Compact Flash card will work.

Unless, of course, they are defective. I'd be willing to bet that's what the "one or two" posts were about.

I Got a Lexar Platinum II 8GB 200x CF and works with no issues
