What data cards are you using?

I'm using 7 of the 32gb Sandisk Extreme Pro cards, primarily because I did not want to have any sort of bottlenecks that might cause me to miss out on one of those killer shots that might actually be a money shot.

specifically their Extreme 16GB SDHC which is rated at up to 45MB/s.

It's also worth noting, that the particular card you use there, is UHS-1 compatible as is your D5100.
UHS-1 class cards have a minimum 50MB/s write speed, so your D5100 will actually be making use of that higher write speed instead of the 45MB/s speed it's rated at if used in a Class 10 compatible device.

Thanks for the tip, I did not know that... I do love me those cards though!
