Default GTN 650 SD card

I'm updating the 650 Nav data only for $299/yr, can I put the latest software upgrade on the same SD card I use for the Nav data?

Thanks Walt, as long as I format a new SD card to FAT32 I can update it myself from the link below since this is an experimental?

Since I haven't done a software upgrade yet, is this the highlighted sub menu I should use?
