Neil I am a bit of geek and i know it shouldn't make a difference because you are correct about not defaging flash memory but it seems that it helps nuvi's function better for some reason not sure why but i read somewhere that Garmin actually programmed all nuvis to auto defrag themselves cant remember where at the moment.

Wish i could figure out how to fix the poi searching lag :-(

I doubt very much that Garmin would do something to defrag a flash drive, cause every time you read or write on a flash drive or ssd it wears out the electrodes, so there is a limit to how many time you can access it (big number though, something like 10,000 or 100,000))

Keep in mind that certain 200W units, such as mine, only come with 1GB of memory which will require transferring portions of the map to a SD card. Hopefully you don't encounter this.

I faced the similar problem as well where my Garmin 1350 only maximum 1GB internal memory space. Will have to figure a way out for transferring the .img files
