Why is the Sandisk Extreme Compact Flash card with the gold label cheaper than the one with the black label? What is the difference between the two?

the main difference is the memory speed is a bit faster on the black label, it a bit better on video recording, but I think the gold label is good enough for the price u spend

Check the transfer rates of the two cards that is likely the difference. You can also go to the Sandisk web site and compare the two cards.

The transfer rate is usually the reason in pricing. The faster the transfer rate, the higher the price.

It's a design or model change thats all. Sandisk cards for me are the best you can get, not a card failure in 8 years with every card i have from this brand.

Personally I alway go by "you get what you pay for". I actually use the SanDisk Extreme III card. It has a 30mb/s rate, highest in its class I believe. The cards are a little on the expensive side, especially for the 16GB, but worth it I think. Because of the high compression rate, it take a while to download/transfer files, this helps with that when you have an average computer. Not an overwhelming difference, but enough to say "Awesome".

It reads my type 1 Sandisk extreme 32GB CF card just fine. Type 2 cards are a bit thicker though. Not sure if it will completely fit. Btw, get the usb 3 version rather than this usb 2 version

I looked at my original order & see a new seller is listed. My guess is that if buying from Amazon they use a number of vendors so you'd have to read the fine print. I did order this for myself at the same time and I see it's still available for a good price. You might want to consider getting it just to be safe & so you have an extra on hand.

I've got a 1GB regular Sandisk and 2GB Ultra II Sandisk, and they both work flawlessly. I'd guess it's just you need a good name brand card?

I have tried both a Sandisk 32GB and then a 64GB card and the player has recognized it. However, I do see a little bit of a slow down accessing the larger disk. I think this has more to do with the player needing to list the larger number of files and also load thumbnails if it is a picture directory. This may just be overloading the poor little player's processing abilities!

Well Lampe, you are correct. I bought the 128 GB Lexar thumb/flash drive which in one image shows the USB 3.0, the 128 GB, and the Lexar label all green while the body is black and white. Then, when you click on the title, the image becomes all gray. The good news is that the product arrived with the proper colors. I presume the 64 GB one would be OK, i.e., green. So, I suggest that you will be OK. But, you might want to check with Amazon.com on this issue. (I will be doing just that!)

I bought a SanDisk Extreme Pro 95MB/s 10 SDHC1 8GB memory card to use with it, but the regular one like you listed is the other type that I use. Either works well, although I like the higher end one for quality. This camera is more expensive, but very excellent.

Joe, I don't know the answer and I'm in Italy with a dongle internet connectionthat cuts out faster than I can google. I would look at SanDisk's own website and see the writing speed (and secondly the reading speed).They seem priced the same, and Amazon's spekc are sketchy.

I also find this confusing and misinforming. The title (in list view) says it is an Extreme Plus card, but changes to Extreme on product view. Selecting the Original Packaging option shows Extreme image, AFFP option shows Extreme Plus Image. Sandisk website shows Extreme Plus as SDSDQX-032G-A46A, which is shown on the original packaging item number, not Extreme: SDSDQXL-032G-A46A. Which which is which?

Hi, it's a regular SD card. I know what you are talking about. I recently bought a non branded Micro HC card and gave me issues. I never had issues with the SanDisk. Worth to spend a buck more for this...

Comprehensive answer to this question can be found at: http://www.ehow.com/list_6689586_differences-flash-sd-memory-cards.htmlSimple answer is that they are simply two different formats for providing storage to computing devices. Each has it's advantages and disadvantages.

They are essentially priced the same and practically do not differ that much. I had both, newer one works better for me in general (and finish-wise, black one goes better with my camera).I guess the old one becomes a collectible now :-)

I have the black model. A close friend and a daughter-in-law have the silver. The three of us each use a SanDisk, Ultra II, 1GB card. I do all the printing on the same printer, so all comparisons are identical. That said, I see no difference in the prints from black or silver. I just think the black looks better beacause it breaks up all that silver. Interesting comment from Pger. I also agree with Fred Miller. I think it's just a matter of your color preference as the specs for both are the same.

This is more of a clarification, because I don't have a definite answer.CF Type I and Type II are identical, except for thickness (3.3 and 5mm respectively). The roman numerals (I and II) are not related to the Ultra "II" (10Mb/s), Extreme "III" (20Mb/s) and Extreme "IV" (40Mb/s) numerals, which simply refer to a faster generation. Most cards are CF-I.I'd be surprised if Extreme III and IV would not be compatible with Sandisk's most recent multicard reader, but at least one user reports otherwise.

Everywhere I look is a photo of this item but many of them look different. The one I just bought keeps up in speed with my new Nikon D610 camera. The memory card I received has the following markings: 32GB, a big letter C with the number 10 inside that letter, 95MB/sec, Extreme PRO, SD/HC-1, and of course Scan Disk. I believe that the actual memory card is, as it is marked. Publishers seem not to check the small numbers in the photos they use for ads. Unless you have some unusual application you are probably OK with a class1, C-10 speed card. .
