Will a generic card reader work for downloading Garmin GNS 430updates?

I've not tried to pull one out.

That's because it was done by the ex-apollo guys. The MX20 used a
CF card and the MX200 uses a SD card. It has a copy of the windows
file system on it for the MX20 (it's running NT4.0). The 480 also
uses a standard card / filesystem. Both my units came with a sandisk
reader though my little PCCard reader also works fine.
The 430/530 have a goofy proprietary format.
