Leigh - Since it was YOUR thread -

I'm not sure where on the Garmin website you found the text about "enough
memory".
https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?pID=1456&pvID=30132#requirementsTab
but they are really talking about "storage" via the internal flash drive or
external SDcard.

This discusssion is about the "flash memory" capacity -
which is the virtual disk drive,
either internal to the GPS, or by adding a SDcard....

This is different than "ram"
which is the real computer memory....and can't be added to.

SO - it's basically the virtual disk drive storage on the device.... ie -
flash memory.
Just like with a digital camera -

Problem with changing semantics - storage vs memory....
Used to be easy.... memory => chips, and storage => disk
now BOTH are on chips or external cards....

What the -something- is a ScanDisk???

I know how to scan a disk, but there is no place for a disk in my 750!

The OP meant a SDcard - like sold by "Sandisk" -
