Revision as of 05:33, 9 February 2012

The CF Card slot (CompactFlash) is found on select ThinkPads.

This is a CF+ Type II slot.

This is implemented as a PCMCIA device, that can support both CF memory cards, and CF IO cards (e.g. Bluetooth or WiFi).

This is handled by the Linux PCMCIA subsystem.

This is implemented as a USB device, and can only support CF memory cards.

This is handled by the Linux USB Storage subsystem (usb-storage).
