I have both as well. I love the CFFA card. They are small, compact, light and travel well from computer to computer. (I won 3 of them.) but I can't find any CF media that _works_ in it. I have tried Sandisk and any other brands large and dinky capacity, newer and older and I have not found one that works. I am using the "IBM Microdrive" 340Meg mechanism instead in my CFFA and it works very well so I know the cards work. The "IBM Microdrive" is a CF size hard drive and it is great except for an audible high pitched whir.

I like the microdrive a little better as it seems faster than the CFFA. But I don't like to carry it around as it feels a bit more impact unfriendly when wielding it.

My 2 cents,
