There are programs designed specifically for browsing and running
programs from the SD2IEC and similar devices.

The most common one is simply named FB64 (for FileBrowser).

If you don't have any of the fastloaders supported by the SD2IEC, you
may want to take look at "FB1K". It has a built-in fastloader.

TheRetroChannel shows how to use both here:

He also does some performance comparisons, as well as showing a method
for transferring a D64 or single file between the SD2IEC and a real
floppy.
