My MicroDrive Turbo IDE (GS-firmware) is much faster with
a IDE 2,5" harddisk than a CFFA 2.0 (v1.2 65C02 firmware)
with a Sandisk flash card.
My GS (2,8MHz) boots quicker to begin with and I can note
differences when I copy many or large files.

Now, this comparison is somewhat unfair (both interfaces
should use a flash card) and may only illustrate two typical
configurations.
