Pretec Releases 16GB Compact Flash

Pretec sure likes to come out with rather large capacity memory cards, well just last month they came out with the 8GB SD card. While this time SanDisk actually beat them to the 16GB Pretec has been known to be the first with high capacities cards such as 3 GB in November 2002 and 6 GB in March 2003.






According to Pretec the demand for higher capacity and better performing flash cards has been increasing in our daily lives with introduction of ever higher resolution digital cameras and the emergence of new multimedia appliances and industrial applications. Over the last 10 years CompactFlash has seen a 4,000 times increase in capacity from the first announcement of Pretec 4MB CF card to today’s 16GB.
