Introduction

I would like to thank Lexar for supplying the review sample.

Lexar's storage solutions have an immensely good reputation among enthusiasts, so the expectations for their newest SDHC card solutions are very high. The company has turned some heads with their "Professional" series of memory cards. These are aimed at people in need for the best quality and fastest performance possible. Coupled with the cards come very special card readers, like the FireWire 800 based card reader. The Compact Flash Series is labeled with a 300x speed and UDMA capability. We have the 8 GB card on our test bench today.
