Will a faster card be of any use in my situation?

[gallet]

I'm using a US basemapped HCx with CN Australia which means that when I zoom out instead of defaulting to an Aussie basemap I see the full map which is very slow to scroll obviously.

 

Anyway when downloading and uploading stuff to a micro sd card reader recently I notice that writing to the card is much slower than reading from the card.

 

So what I was wondering is if a card with a faster write time will speed up map scrolling when zoomed out at high detail.

Don't know...but before you buy a faster card...make sure it will work.

 

Several people had problems with the "Fast" (Gold Label) Sandisk SD card for the GPSMap60s'.

But before I make sure that a card works I need to know if there is any point in getting a faster card, with regard to the scolling a zoomed out map problem.

I'd ask garmin tech support, they are very helpful.

 

(i doubt it, though)

Dont think It would improve it that much.

Maybe you should buy worldmap?
