A Japanese company called Amulet is going to release a CF card that will allow both images and video files to be recorded simultaneously in two separate partition on a single CF card.This technology is called ‘mirroring’, and found in RAID-1 capable Hard Drive. In this mode, the card will become two separate storage devices, and records images to both partitions simultaneously. But, it will reduce the total capacity into half. For example a 64GB card will become  32GB in mirroring mode. How ever it will guarantee a solid recording.

In normal mode, the card will offers 60/50MB/sec read/write speed, which drops to 30/25MB/s in mirroring mode. The card can be switched between standard and mirroring mode at will, although formatting is required after switching. The ‘Wise CF Card Duo’ will be announced officially on June 14th in 64GB capacity. Price and availability is not confirmed yet
