Its ok to have multiple maps in the SD card, but best to only enable the one you want to use. Was told that running multiple maps can hang the GPS.

my garmin after software update can support up to 3 detailed maps in the internal unit... dont really need sdcard method anymore. i put garmin official msm, msm and mfm. garmin official msm still better cos of jcv.
