SanDisk today introduced the world's fastest flash memory cards - the SanDisk Extreme III line of CompactFlash, SD and Memory Stick PRO digital film cards. The CompactFlash and SD cards have minimum write and read speeds of 20 megabytes per second (MB/sec.) (based on SanDisk internal testing. 1 megabyte = 1 million bytes). Memory Stick PRO has minimum write and read speeds of 18 MB/sec. (based on SanDisk internal testing. 1 megabyte = 1 million bytes). The SanDisk Extreme III cards, which range in capacity between one and four gigabytes (GB), have essentially double the performance speeds of SanDisk's predecessor Extreme product line which currently has the fastest working cards in many of today's leading digital single lens reflex (SLR) cameras.
