Actually, it'll decrease it rather drastically.  All the way to none.

You see, at the present time you cannot copy or migrate from one SD to
another.  Copy and migration operations can only occur between devices
attached to a single SD, because SDs cannot yet communicate directly
with one another, which they would need to do to perform inter-SD copies
or migrations.
