|
|
I'm going to update to the latest maps for my 300. GB & pos Western Europe or at least Spain.
I'm just not sure what size card to get a 1GB or a 2GB.
Will a 2GB work OK in a 300.
As always thanks in advance for any help. |

2gb no problem. i have one also working in a v1 ONE. w europe does just fit onto 1gb card but hardly any room left for extra voicesor poi etc. 2gb quite cheap now. |

Thanks for that. Do the Hi speed ones work OK, I seem to recall people having probs with them. |

A few months ago I bought a 1Gb SD card; beforehand I'd e-mailed TT Tech Support who confirmed that the faster the card the better (presumably up to some speed at which card read speed is no longer the bottleneck). I purchased a Kingston 133x card from Picstop which has been absolutely fine. Hope that helps! _________________ TT GO app on Android Phone

Hi speed X66 isnt really high speed relatively speaking.. its kinda average.. sd card makers take some liberties..
comparing how long it takes a tomtom to do a back up with a card reader i think a genuinely fast card is wasted on it..
