***Only*** if you have it formatted in FAT32. FAT16 is instantaneous from the user perspective. It is the difference between scanning 65,526 clusters, and potentially scanning up to 268,000,000 clusters per access.

If you format your SD card of any size <= 2GB with FAT32, you will see a noticeable and annoying delay *every time* the unit powers on. If you format it with FAT16, it will not have any noticeable wait time.
