| Is it possible to take out just one Compact Flash card and work with the other? | Jun-22-09 |
| One can unmount and remove one CF card and still access the other CF card. However, the adapter must be powered off and ejected to insert a CF card.

| I created a RAID 0 out of two Compact Flash cards and it seem no faster than one card. Why? | Jun-22-09 |
| The bandwidth of two cards in a RAID 0 array is about the same as one card alone. However, it's not because the adapter bus is too slow (It's up to 886x!), but because the adapter is based on an ATA interface which cannot interleave commands (like a SATA interface can), so it must initiate and complete a read from one card, then the other and back again. Some video cameras (for example, Red RAID) spreads the data across two cards, so It is necessary to insert both cards simultaneously for retrieval. Having two slots makes this possible. |

| I'm having trouble reading two SanDisk Extremes or Extreme Pros, or the system is asking me to format an already-formatted card. Why? | Mar-24-10 |
| The SanDisk Extreme and Extreme Pro CF cards have design issues that prevent them from working in a dual-card reader in both Mac OS X and Windows. (See our compact flash compatibility on the product page: sonnettech.com/product/produalcfadapterexpress34.html.) SanDisk did not design the Extreme and Extreme Pro to correct ATA specifications. These two Sandisk models can be used as a master ATA device (CR reader upper slot), but not reliably as a slave device (CF Reader lower slot). You should be able to read the Extreme and Extreme Pro one at a time from the upper slot, but be sure that the lower slot is empty. SanDisk Basic, Ultra II, Extreme III and Extreme IV work fine, as do all cards we have tested from Transcend, Lexar and Kingston. For a trouble-free 90MB/sec CF card, we recommend the Lexar Professional 600X or Transcend 600X CF card. If you are not using a SanDisk Extreme or Extreme Pro and are experiencing these problems, contact Sonnet technical support. |
