Nope, in terms of write/read speed, microdrives were faster than most CFs. The only drawbacks of MDs were its spin-up time, fragility and higher power consumption

The write/read speed of a compactflash depends on the device you are using it with. To your question - generally, yes. Check out more on CF performance here.
