The same command on a 3845 running 12.4(15)T5 omits all tech details 
above the # of heads.  However an identical card in a 2811 running 20T 
shows that info once again:

We're using the cheap Kingston modules.  Not the fancy ones that claim 
faster write times.  It's the "CF/1GB" model.

They can be had for about $10 wholesale.
