Transcend this week announced a pair of ultra high-speed CompactFlash cards -- Ultimate 600X and Premium 400X -- the company claims offers "unmatched transfer rates."
Backing that claim is the Ultimate series 600X, which operates in a quad-channel configuration. Read and write speeds top out at about 90MB/s, while capacity ramps up to 32GB.
For those who require a little more storage, the Premium series 400X offers capacities ranging from 16GB on up to 64GB. They offer the same 90MB/s read speeds as the Ultimate series, but a bit more subdued write speeds at up to 60MB/s.
Both cards offer full support for UDMA mode 6 and built-in ECC to automatically detect and correct any errors.
No word yet on price or availability.

Woo!
I gotta get me a couple of those 32GB 600x cards for my Sony Alpha 350 DSLR!
My lowly 4GB Sandisk is nice and fast, but it only holds about 180 of those 14.5 Megapixel RAW files. :P If I want to go on a trip, I'll need more space than that!!! (1 Week in SD I shot 2,000+ frames).
