Host compatibilityA supported CFexpress Type B camera or reader, with firmware and capacity support confirmed by the host manufacturer. Older Type B hosts may not offer CFexpress 4.0 performance.
Write protectionNo physical card-level write-protect switch is specified for this model; use host controls and verified backups.
Model-specific noteThe stated high-speed ceiling is associated with CFexpress 4.0 and a compatible host/reader; the 1 TB model is DCFX4P1TB, not the earlier 512 GB POWER record.

Handling and preservation

No finite shelf-life or archival-life guarantee is claimed here. Keep the card clean, dry, labeled, and in its protective case; avoid touching contacts and never remove it during a write. After use, verify files and maintain multiple checksummed copies on independent media. Before a migration or recovery, record the exact card SKU, camera/reader, firmware, filesystem, and host.
