Compact Flash Type II : The only difference between Type 1 and Type II is the size of the package, slightly thicker at 5. 5 mm compared to Type I's 3. 3 mm. The large package size allows for larger capacities, notably IBM's successful Microdrive ie a Type II device with capacities of 340, 512 and 1 GB. As with Type I devices Type II devices can be used in a PCMCIA [Personal Computer Memory Card International Association] slot with an adapter. 1, record 1, English, - compact%20flash%20type%20II
