When we were upgrading from the SUP2 to the SUP720, we told 
Cisco we'd use the IBM 1GB compact flash modules unless 
they gave us something similar.

In the end, Cisco shipped our SUP720's with Cisco-branded 
1GB compact flash cards (external). However, the internal 
flash card remains at 512MB, which is fine with us:
