Why oh why would you want to install to a removeable location in the first place? GPS and their maps are the only reason I can think of, and people have been quite happy to install to a card for quite a while.

When did the thinking that "internal > card" come around? Whenever it was, that thinking needs to be stuffed back in its damn cage.
