I noticed the original SD Card had a little glitch...I had too copy the original contents off the unused brand new 16gb card that came with the inspireThen format it before it could be used and then replace the contents back onto it.
Was there meant too be anything on the card prior too first use?

Folders on original card:
DCM (Empty)
MISC/IDX/LOG/THM....*File* Configuration Settings 0kb

If someone formats the folders unaware or whatever Do they get replaced upon re-use?

You can format the card and the I1 will rebuild the necessary system files required.

The DCIM Folder is where your Media is stored once you take some Photos or Videos. Digital Camera IMages.
