Compact Flash Question: What is x?

Some compact flash cards advertise a read/write speed of n Mb.sec, where is a number such as 30. I believe I understand what that means. Others advertise as nx, where n is a number such as 133, 150, 266. I do not understand what that means. Could someone please explain? The "x" is 150 kilobytes/second (it is the same as the one on CD-ROM drives), so, for instance, 133x is roughly 20megabytes/second. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compact_Flash -- Bertrand |
