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.
