Is unchecking map totally benign

 

Hi - I have an N370, so both US and European maps. I am normally using one or the other, not both. But I do not want to take them off because I fear I would forget to put on, get screwed up with an unlock, or the billion other things that happen when one is leaving on a trip. So, if I simply uncheck one map on the Nuvi map info screen, does it simply not load that map but leave it totally intact, in memory etc. I assume that would make the initial map loading a bit faster. But do not want to test if I might really screw things up. Thanks for any advice

It definitely will NOT hurt anything to uncheck the map. And you are probably correct that it might load a bit faster, but these units have pretty strong processors, so I wouldn't worry too much about leaving it visible either.

Alas you are right

Thanks MM
Given your post (and reliability) I tried a test (wristwatch, not stopwatch, but fine for these purposes). Within a second or two when both maps checked as opposed to US only. Clearly not worth it!
