you can have stuff on there but a format will delete all of that so be sure to back your card up before formatting. to back up all yu do is drag the contents to your desktop than format and drag back.

yes; they will all be deleted off the card, that's why you back up the card to a folder on ur computer first then format it, like dashy said :P
