Just received this 66x/60x CF today. It should be reading and writing at 10MB/s and 9Mb/s but it is not faster than my old Transcend CF. What did I do wrong?

Camera has its own R/W speed limits.
I'm using my 1gb Ultra with the D70 now, and the speed is really blazing!

Igor is right,its the camera not the card. :righton:
