Thread: City Navigator North America NT 2013.10

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))
