Definitely CF. USB, SD Card and the like, they all have limits to how
they can be used as permanent storage solutions without an IDE/SATA
adapter; no UDMA; no support for true filesystems (currently CF can do
JFS). CF is the alternative to SSD, SD (via reader) or USB are nowhere near.
http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=48524 - read lilsirecho's posts
http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Diskless_System - a good read too
and http://soft.com.sg/forum/gear-computer-sw/55922-daw-ssd.html for
some practical opinions on CF. Have you not experienced the difference
since you have already been running CF? Or yet to try the thumbdrive
route? It won't be bad (we already do it with Live USB distros with
write support), but don't make it an alternative to hard disks.
Thank you for the useful information. I will go with CF then.
