Since MD uses moving parts it will use more energy than static storage, so yes the 1gb CF static memory you have found will use less battery power.

However, I would recomend getting a 1gb SD card, as they are accessed faster then CF in general, and are ussally cheaper, keep your CF MD for other stuff.
