these are probably different technologies though?  if cf cards aren't
generally fast, then the sata device isn't a cf card just with a
different form factor.  or is the CF interface the limiting factor?

also, isn't CF write very slow (relative to read)?  if so, you should
really show read vs write iops.

Most vendors don't list this, for obvious reasons.  SanDisk is honest
enough to do so though, and the number is spectacularly bad: 15.
