New Delhi: Transcend Information, a global leader in flash memory products and DRAM memory modules, has launched its new Extreme Speed 300X CompactFlash card - an addition to Transcend's award-winning line of high speed, ultra-reliable flash memory cards. Austin Huang, Regional Head - Sales, SAARC & APAC, Transcend, said, "Photographers, both professional and amateurs, and all other power users have a strong appetite for powerful memory and enhanced performance. Being responsive to our customer's evolving needs, Transcend's Extreme Speed 300X CompactFlash card delivers read and write speeds making consecutive shooting and non-stop video recording with today's high-performance DSLR Cameras a breeze. We are confident that our customers will appreciate the performance and reliability that it offers." Transcend's new device operates in dual-channel Ultra DMA mode 5, the fastest speed available for CF cards. This interface allows Transcend's 300X CF cards to achieve extraordinarily fast read/write speeds of up to 45MB per second on average, making consecutive shooting and non-stop video recording with today's high-performance digital single lens reflex cameras (DSLR) easier. With impressive transfer speeds and enormous storage capacity, users are guaranteed to get the best performance results from their high-end digital equipment. To ensure reliable, glitch-free data communication and prevent data corruption or missing files, Transcend's 300X CF cards are built with an advanced ECC (Error Correction Code) that automatically detects and corrects errors during data transfer.
