The kingston CF cards have specifically made it into previous threads as being
troublesome on the 4801 and 5501. I personally am all for moving to SATA SSD
on the 5501 if you care about it actually working. SATA is a much better hard
drive interface than CF, and the performance, longevity, size, and cost at size
is massively better.
I have been using sandisk ultra CF cards without any problem for years, but the
performance has never been great.
