 | | CompactFlash (CF) was originally a type of data storage device, used in portable electronic devices. |
 | | As of 2005, CompactFlash cards are available in capacities from about 8 megabytes to about 12 gigabytes, perhaps the most popular choices being between 128 MB and 1 GB (in Europe and America). |
 | | When CompactFlash was first being standardized, even full-sized hard disks were rarely larger than 4 GB in size, and so the existing limitations of the ATA standard were considered acceptable. |
