From the manual found here.
http://www.eaglenav.com/upload/Eagle/Documents/Manuals/SeaCharter500cDF_0156-041_121004.pdf

MMC or SD Card Memory Card Installation
Your unit uses a MultiMedia Card to store information, such as sonar
logs, custom maps, waypoints, trails and other GPS data. The unit can
also use Secure Digital Cards (SD card) to store data.

Eagle and Lowrance are pretty much the same company. Anything for Lowrance should also fit the Eagle.

A little confused at this point, what is the difference between hot maps, and the reg gold navionics card, and do they both show my boat positioning on them as I move through the water?

The unit will place the boat position near the center of the unit screen. The map is moved on the unit as you move. Many types of maps, some very detailed at a higher cost.
