It is not unlikely you will see a slowdown initially, but after the device completes the indexing process you should not see a terrible slowdown. Make sure that when you shop for the card that you avoid Class 2 cards. Class 4 and Class 6 will be much more efficient and will give reasonable speed. Class 2 cards will be like molasses in winter......
