Ridata Questions......
Has anyone used the Ridata 256mb Pro 20x 30x and / or the Ridata 512 20x compact flash cards that are so popular on e-bay. The 256 is consistantly selling for around $50 and the 512 mb around $125. I"m seriously concidering buying one. Has anyone out there purchased these CF cards and had good success with them?

I just got the Ridata 256 20x $50 on ebay a few days ago and last night and today, it won't bounce tracks.
It's on the compatible list from Fostex, so now I don't know what to do. It may be a bad card, mislabeled, counterfeit, or not compatible, I'm stuck at the moment. -j |

Sounds like counterfeit or mislabeled (same thing?), as high performance 256 cards are typically at least 100 bucks.
Some user in that other thread found a vendor that would take exchanges, since it sounded like they wanted this market, but I had a guy at CompUSA even say that returns on that stuff were iffy. |

cf card
thats just great, i just ordered one. Maybe i can hurry and try and cancel. I wish they would work, or not, its hell not finding out until you go to bounce tracks.

I trusted the Fostex information, so I didn't even check here on the bbs. I'll never make that mistake again. So last night I did a search on Ridata and I got about 5 users saying that it didn't work. And that was from months ago. I did the upgrade before the new chip since that's what the chart said was required.... -j

Probably time for a new thread to get a current list of cards that people have lived with for a while and know are solid. |
