Does this give 4k 60p capability and does it appear to be a worth grabbing price or are there other similar value options. Is 128 too small to bother with or would 2 X 128 still be worthwhile. Right now I'm in the experimental phase and don't know a whole lot, as must be obvious.

I really don't know, I only use my 1DX II for stills and it is adequate for that.
This is the article I found from the time when the cards were first introduced:
https://www.eteknix.com/transcend-introduces-the-cfast-2-0-cfx650600-memory-cards-for-4k-video-recordings/
As I said, I think they discontinued the 600 model and I suspect the lower prices are the result of dealers clearing out their stock.
Thanks. They responded with a definite no to 4k60 but wrote nothing more. Googled and read and it sounds like 4k30 would be OK. Is roughly $105 USD a decent price for just a second card (128 GB) for the Cfast slot? Any suggestion on a good performing but not overly expensive CF card? With the 6D I lived in the SD realm so now only have a friends 8GB card and like you I've traditionally shot stills but what a shame not to do some video.

For stills? Sounds like a bargain to me. These things run at $300 +or-
As mentioned, no previous CF or Cfast experience. I'm thinking rather than spending on a bigger (maybe 128) CF this could be a cheaper option and still give me the same capacity?? Would there be any trade off? I'm guessing the CFX600 cards they are selling are discontinued.
