Yes, there still might be some soup structures on your card. If you tap a
storage icon, you'll see that it will use probably around 1K on your old
card, even though you'll see that there is no item on that card. Just some
kind of structure that needs to stay there. I think you probably copied
everything over. I'm not sure why you got the error message, though, so you
might want to keep your old card around and safe, just in case...
