It took a while for it to happen but Corsair has finally began
selling CompactFlash and Secure Digital Memory cards to the general
public. What is not surprising is the fact that Corsair offers a
ridiculously long warranty of 10-years on all of these products. As
a matter of fact just a few days ago Corsair sent out this press
release letting the world know about this major addition to their
already huge line-up of memory components.
