Gigaram CompactFlash Card 4GB 50p Commercial Grade

SKU CH-0WXX-6N15G

CompactFlash storage card offering 4 GB capacity with commercial-grade durability for industrial use

  • TypeCompact Flash (CF)
  • Capacity4GB
  • 4GB capacity stores essential files and firmware
  • 21 MB/s read speed loads industrial images fast
  • 6 MB/s write speed logs sensor data reliably
  • 50-pin PATA connector fits legacy IDE and PCMCIA slots
  • Commercial-grade build endures extended temperature cycles

Product Identity

The Gigaram CompactFlash card provides 4 GB of solid-state storage for legacy equipment that still relies on the Parallel ATA interface. Industrial controllers, older digital cameras and embedded systems are the typical users.

Deciding Specification

The card uses a 50-pin connector and the Parallel ATA bus, so it fits only slots wired for that interface. Buyers who need a faster serial interface or a smaller form factor cannot use this part.

Installation Notes

Insert the card into a compatible 50-pin slot until it seats firmly; no drivers are required on most legacy operating systems. The main issue is forcing the connector into a misaligned socket, which can bend the pins.

Questions about this item

What does the 21 MB/s read figure mean when the card is inside a camera or recorder?

It represents the maximum sequential read speed the card can sustain on the Parallel ATA bus, so large files transfer at up to that rate in real use.

How does the 50-pin Parallel ATA interface limit performance in practice?

The PATA bus caps potential throughput at 125 MB/s, so the card cannot exceed that ceiling even if the flash memory is faster.

What slot or adapter does this 50-pin CompactFlash card need to fit?

It requires a standard 50-pin CF slot or a compatible CF-to-IDE/PCMCIA adapter that matches the Parallel ATA pinout.
