    Does the Dell 1520 card reader support CF cards?

    no and to my knowledge no current notebooks do either, a good workaround is to purchase a usb external reader they are fairly cheap

    I bought a PC Card CF adapter for my last notebook a couple years ago. Now there is even no PC Card slot on newer notebook. USB card reader (~$5-10) would be the cheaper and more durable solution.
