Malcolm Davies Amps CAS Posted March 30, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 For quite some time the primary drives on both my Deva and Nomad have been purring along splendidly using 64GB 400x Transcend CF cards. I certainly concur, firmware version is important. I'm currently using: Deva firmware -- vers. 7.56 (Deva & Fusion use the same firmware, and at the heart of it, are the same basic machine) This is the version you should be using. Nomad firmware -- vers. 7.27 John. Your notes regarding the cards is very interesting. Here in the UK a search for a 64gb Transcend brings up a few suppliers but most of them are on E-bay which you say should be avoided. Amazon is the only other supplier I would feel comfortable with. Maybe these card types are more readily available in the US. An e-mail from Howy has put me on the right track as far as the most up to date software so hopefully everything will be sorted within a day or so.

John Blankenship Posted March 30, 2015 Report Share Posted March 30, 2015 Here in the colonies, these are the ones I use for a primary drive: http://www.amazon.com/Transcend-400X-Compact-Memory-TS64GCF400/dp/B002WE0QN8/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1427750693&sr=8-2&keywords=transcend+64gb+compact+flash ...and, while I don't recommend buying gear from them (go with the "Usual Suspects" instead), B&H: http://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/666610-REG/Transcend_TS64GCF400_Compact_Flash_400x_64GB.html For mirroring, I use the 32GB version of these, and the 32GB version of the 133s (I also carry some smaller capacity Transcend cards, for the times a client may need to purchase the media from me).
