Standaard, H- en M-versie Xd kaart

[QT]

Kan iemand mij het verschil uitleggen tussen de Standaard, H- en M-versie van de xD kaart?

Op de site van een webwinkel zag ik dat de H-kaartjes slechts een euro duurder waren dan de standaard kaartjes, maar wel 2-3 keer sneller. Zit daar een 'catch' aan?

Heb het al gevonden. Voor het geval dat meer mensen geinteresseerd zijn in het antwoord:

This memory card is not that popular by the digital camera manufactures since they have to incorporate the controller chip into the electronic device, which adds costs and volume. In 2005 a new version of xD-Picture Card was introduced called Type M. The main difference is the uses of Multi-Level Cell technology in contrast to the Single-Level Cell technology that standard xD-Picture Cards are using. This makes the xD-Picture Card Type M less expensive in exchange of being less high performance inform of lower transfer speed (read up to 4 MB/sec and write up to 2.5 MB/sec), lower cell endurance and higher power consumption.

In late 2005 another version of the xD-Picture Card was introduced, Type H, offering higher transfer speeds. Type H is 2 to 3 times faster than the standard or Type M version, the exact transfer speed depends on the digital camera. In most of the cases the different versions of the xD-Picture Card are compatible with each other, but not always. We recommend you to look at the digital camera’s manual if you want to find out the versions that your digital camera is compatible with.
