Genuine industrial grade flash memory products are designed and manufactured for industrial and military applications that require the highest degree of reliability. The authentic industrial grade flash memory products are built to endure severe operating environments such as extreme cold and hot temperatures, continuous vibration, high shock impact, intensive read-write cycles, etc. The industrial grade flash memory products feature vital benefits such as wear-leveling, write protection, error correction, sustained write speed, etc.. Such features are essential to industries that require a more robust digital storage option to ensure reliable and repeatable operations.

Consumer grade flash memory products are built with the much cheaper and less reliable controller chipset and flash memory. These consumer-grade memory products are not durable.  At the beginning the low pricing is very appealing but eventually the reliability problem will appear.
 

CompactFlash (CF) Card Compatibility List

Amtron, APRO, Pretec, and SMART CompactFlash (CF) Cards are compatible with Western Digital (WD) / SiliconSystems SiliconDrive CF Cards.

[SiliconSystems, Inc was acquired by Western Digital Corp in March 2009. Thus SiliconSystems brand name was replaced by WD after the acquisition.]

Auto sensing design makes these CF Card an all-in-one product that envelopes the SiliconSystems SiliconDrive CF Cards including SSD-Cxxx(I)-30xx series, SSD-Cxxx(I)-31xx series, SSD-Cxxx(I)-35xx series, & SSD-Cxxx-4xxx sries.

The letter (I) in the SiliconDrive part number SSD-Cxxx(I)-3xxx stands for "Industrial Wide Temperature Range, -40°C to +85°C".  Without the letter I, it means "Commercial (Standard) Temperature Range, 0°C to +70°C". 

[The following compatibility list is by no means comprehensive and is provided for reference only]

*Auto-sensing: automatically switch to fixed disk mode on IDE bus or removable disk mode on PCMCIA (PC Card)bus; also automatically detect data transfer mode and switch to PIO mode, Multiword DMA (MDMA) or Ultra DMA (UDMA) mode.
