Homebrew whats the biggest sd card size youve got working?

I'm really confused, is the write speed thing a myth or what?

Ok so I decided to actually use a stopwatch to see how long my 128GB took from pushing the start button to the home menu showing up. It took 11 seconds.

I also timed the amount of time to startup Pokemon Sun (6 Seconds), SSB4 (13 seconds), and Fire Emblem Fates (6 seconds). I included the "3DS" screen in these times.

Got no real delay with 64gb (5 sec for a cold boot, but i start the n3DS only once a day so I can deal with it ). Pokemon Sun start in less than 2 sec.
I must add that i used Luma3DS to « overclock » the n3DS but I don’t know if it’s important or not in this case.

I had a 128gb with no problem until I used some inject GBA VC which get issues on displays (it’s documented somewhere). Revert back to 64, problem gone. If you don’t mind to play gba games, you don’t need to worry.

So you've got not issues injecting GBA on the 64? What about SNES?

I use a 128GB Samsung EVO+ with about 20Gb free, a little over 200 titles installed. Cold start is about 15 seconds, the only annoyance is GBA VC games take over 30 seconds to load. I haven't had any issues with injected FFVI, is there something I have to do or a point in the game I have to reach to cause the glitch?

64gb, no issues

by whats the biggest, i mean whats the biggest size past 32gb that you have everything working on.
some people partitioned an sd card to get more space, but has it ever failed beyond a certain point of space filled?

I gots the 128gb samsung evo microsd working on the N3ds xl no probs and ive used over 32gb of space on it and it still works purrfectly

mine doesnt take long at all to load and i have the same card, im also using an overclocked N3ds xl though. if your running armloaderhax try using the overclock setting maybe that'll help

I now have a 200GB Micro SD card working without issue have about 135 GB filled on it too. It didn't work initially after my original format and I thought that the 200 GB card wasn't going to work, but then I formatted it to fat32 a second time (didn't change anything as I could recall), and that seemed to do the trick in getting it to work. Everything loads very quickly as well (just about 300 titles installed). Card type is: SanDisk 200GB Ultra microSDXC UHS-I Memory Card, cost about $80 at Walmart, no complaints.

i think 1tb sd would work i only use 32 cuz i dont need all that space

 

[Aristox-0]

On the 64?

Yeah the 64 GB

In theory just about any (micro)SD card should work, as long as you can properly format it to fat32. As of now MicroSD cards only get as large as 256GB, so N3DS will not be able to test up to 1TB of storage at this time. My understanding is that standard SD cards can be bought in sizes of 1TB (perhaps even higher) though they are costly to say the least. If someone had one they could test it on an O3DS that can still accept the physically larger SD card size, but I really doubt anyone has one of those lying around.

Yeah the 64 GB

Lol, I was tired and thought you meant the nintendo 64 xD.
Sorry, my bad.

I had this bug with injected GBA before trying any injected SNES so I can’t say. But on my 64GB, no problem at all with any of my SNES injected.
