Just a quick question; after you have installed your update can you now save you waypoints and tracks to the same SD card or should I remove the update and store on my computer and just leave the blank SD card in for saving the data. I know I have to keep my lake maps card in one of the slots and I keep that card locked so I don't mess it up.
It's a good idea to save the update on your PC instead of on the SD card ...
It won't really hurt anything residing on the SD card ... But ...

Thanks Rickie
Allow me to share a bit of experience. A few years back, I update and did not delete the update from my sd card. When the next update came out, I loaded up to the same sd card, forgetting I still had the previous .bin file still on my card. I updated as normal, and lost all functions from my transducer (sonar, DI and SI). I took me over 2 months of reading, asking, and playing with my unit, until I finally found a post on another site that when you updated from a card with 2 versions, it confused the unit and shut it down. I checked my card, found the 2 .bin files and deleted the oldest. I then updated and been working good since. Just my experience!!

Agreed.
I only put ONE update on a card, because ya never know .....
I keep a separate card just for updates and always reformat it after each update. Always good to keep a backup on the computer.
