| Posted by keelie SD Cards (size, format, structure) Is there a maximum size of SD card that a Nuvi will recognise ? Considering there's not much difference in price between an 8 and 16 Gb card I'm inclined to follow the AJ Foyt dictum of, "there ain't no substitute for cubic inches", if it will be recognised. |
| Posted by david.lavender Is there a maximum size of SD card that a 255W will recognis I currently use a 16 GB SD card and have no problem with my Nuvi 265W. Dave |
| Posted by keelie SD Cards Thanks for the reply. I phoned Garmin technical and was told a maximum of 2GB !! As I had a 2GB card in my camera, I took a chance and ordered a 4GB card. Reckoning that if it didn't work in the nuvi, I could switch the cards. The 4GB card seems fine at the moment but it's good to know that if I run out of space I can go for a bigger card. |

| Posted by caryl_bergeron SD card size I have heard that it's not so much the size of the SD card itself but how much space the GPS thinks it can use. So even though you may put a 4GB card into it and the GPS has no problems with the card, it may only use the first 2GB. This would be a programming issue as the software would need to be able to recognize that it can place data beyond the 2GB maximum location. It's possible that SD card size limits on older units may have been updated during the various firmware updates. There may even be firmware update notes that mention this if this is what they've done. The best way to test this is get a big card and try filling it with data. If your unit doesn't recognize all the data then you may have found the SD size limit. |

| Posted by GarminGuy Recommended micro-SD card size for DriveAssist 50LMT I have the Garmin DriveAssist 50LMT. I know that you can have up to a maximum of a 64GB micro-SD card for both the camera and for map data. My question is what is the recommended size? Is a 32GB card adequate for the camera and a 64GB for the maps? Or vice versa? Or is anything more then 32GB just a waste? |
