I think it would be pretty slow - my CF cards seem to give only 5-6MB/sec transfer. Even my slowest hard drives run a LOT faster than that.

Plus - CF has a limited lifespan when it comes to writing to the card.
Ok, if it's that slow, then I'll probably just get a couple of extra SATA drives. I was just hoping that something with no mechanical parts.would be quick and reliable. If anyone has any other ideas, then please let me know!

Thanks
