[j-nsp] PCMCIA Adapter for M7i router

[Corey Robertson]

I will second the statement about CF card pickiness. Juniper charges a premium for larger CF cards, and apparently for good reason. Using a proven process for replicating an existing CF card, or building a new one, my results have been 50/50 at best.

Multiple brands, sizes, configurations. Either stick with Juniper direct or give your upgrade/replacement a thorough beating in the lab. No sense to stake your network on saving a a couple hundred dollars.
