Seagate Announces 5GB Compact Flash

Computer storage device manufacturer Seagate will begin shipping a 5 gigabyte CompactFlash card to retail stores next month, the company has announced. The 5GB card is the largest on the market to date, and will work on any CompactFlash II based device, Segate said. It will hold 1,500 high-resolution or 4,000 standard-resolution pictures on a single card.

"Seagate wants to bring photographers reliable, simple storage - shoot and store thousands of high-resolution photos without changing your CompactFlash drive," said Brian Dexheimer, Seagate executive vice president of Sales and Marketing. The company had already released a 2.5GB CompactFlash card late last year.
