Working CF cards on Iriver H300

Hi all!
Does anybody know if there are some lists of CF cards, which have no problems while working in Iriver H300?
I can find two kinds of 32Gb CF with reasonable price in my city:
1.
Compact Flash 32GB Team 233x
2.
Compact Flash Card 32GB Transcend 133x
Are they suitable for CF Mod? I've read that there may be some problems with Transcend.

I've read that, there is no clear information about exact models of CF cards for H300. The process of CF mod I understood, but when I buy CF card I must be sure that I'll have no problems with it. There are two models which I specified in my first post. And no information about those models in the CF mod guide page.

I've heard that a CF card must work in True-IDE mode to be compatible with the rockbox and the player. Does anybody know exact models of CF cards which meet that requirement?

"True IDE" is not a thing; what people mean is whether the card appears as a removable drive or not (a real IDE hard drive would not be a removable drive). I'm not sure which, if any, players actually care about this.

Is it guarantee that Transcend x133 32GB CF will work on Iriver h300 if it works on iPod mini 1st and 2nd gen and on iPod 5.5G? Or these players can have different requirements to the CF cards?

I have been using a Transcend x133 32GB CF in my iriver h300 successfully for several years now. I can recommend it with no hesitation. I also have a Ridata 32GB CF in another h300, and it works smoothly also.
Good luck!

I already tried a transcend 32gb 400x and the transcend didn't work...
Thank you

Could anyone give me the link to exact procedure of CF Mod on Iriver H300?
In the CFMod Guide I can see that:
"There is no bootloader in pre-release that can be of use. I have patched a bootloader that also outputs some debugging info. No warranty is given except that the binary was flashed in my h320 and works fine: H300.zip."
Is it the latest guide? are there any instructions about Iriver Flashing?
I go to this page:
http://www.rockbox.org/wiki/IriverFlashing
and see no hints for Iriver h300, are steps the same?

I have not been able to get my Transcend 8 GB 133x CF card to work with Rockbox. I am using the bootloader linked on the CFMod wiki page (r16446M). I'm able to connect in bootloader USB mode and copy files over, but Rockbox fails to boot with "ATA error -81".
Here are the debugging values that are printed:
id[00] = 848A
id[82] = 702B
id[83] = 500C
Any suggestions, short of trying a different CF card?

I used the patched bootloader linked on the wiki page -- H300.zip. As far as I know, that is the latest working version.

Are you sure that the file is updated? I thought it's the very old file, which was actual at the moment of this guide making. And that was several years ago. There's no clear instruction on how to download the most recent bootloader.

I don't mean to rain on any parades, but memory card model names have a very weak connection (if any at all) to the physical contents.

The contents have direct connection to the cards because different bootloaders as I understood have different compatibility with cards. So I need to know where to get the latest one to have the biggest chance that my Iriver will work properly with mentioned CF cards and not to have a bricked player. Since there are no detailed lists about cards compatibility for Iriver H300 and no clear instruction how to get the latest bootloader on CFMod Guide page.
