I would take your quesiton to a more specific forum, perhaps that found on dpreview.com or photo.net

As long as it isn't a UDMA card (which Ultra II's aren't, to my knowledge), it should work perfectly.

This is something that really annoys me about product specifications and reviews: They say simply that a device takes a specific media format as if all of these formats are identical. In fact, they are not. Any CF card over 2-GB must be formatted in FAT-32. If the device that you're using the card with supports FAT-32, it should work okay with that card. But, the manufacturers and product reviewers play cat and mouse so often that we must resort to asking the most basic compatibility questions of those who have simply tried it and either experienced success or failure. I'm sorry, I don't know the answer to your question, but you can read more on this here:

The card works in my Konika-Minolta Dynax 5D but I don't know if it will run in my 19 in 1 Hama card reader/writer
