I've heard really bad things about people trying to use 128gb SD cards on the 3DS. are you sure it's not fake?

Can't speak for everyone. But my 128 GB micro SD card has never given me an issue, though I know I bought a real 128GB micro SD card and not some fake claiming to have that much data as you often see being sold online, as I bought mine new at a Best Buy (and its about 120GB full at this point too). Of course A9LH also helps in that I never have to worry about my boot rate anymore, as it launches every time, but even before A9LH, I had a great boot rate (until I switched from RXtools to CakesFW, for some reason my bootrate decreased quite significantly when I made that change, and was the main catalyst for me making the move to both A9LH and AuReiNAND).

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

im torn because i love my boot animation but want faster boot times lol

I'm with ya, but ultimately, the animation wins out for me, because its like 2 extra seconds long, and I still know it's going to boot every time, so I can take the slight increase in wait if it means my N3DS looks all the more cooler. The full boot including animation is probably about 12 seconds with my 128GB sd card. I'll take that over my 20 to 30 second menuhax boot that didn't always work at that, any day.

15 second boot time with A9LH and 128 GB here

Now if you say that 64 GB is faster, you are correct. But is 8 seconds even a difference compared to 15 seconds? I say not! It's worth all that extra space for sure.

I don't even notice those 15 seconds, I turn it on and look away. I'm so used to menuhax, that this isn't bad at all. Think about the old days where we had to use the DS profile exploit, which was more of a hassle. Now we're spoiled with 100% boot rate and autobooting.

I reboot my 3DS about once a week, so 15-20 seconds is not such a big deal, and with the latest MenuHax, I seem to have near 100% boot rate. To me A9LH is not worth the risk of bricking the device.

@Margen67 - That's fair, but in my case, I don't reboot but once per week (approx). So 100% boot rate saves me about 15 to 20 seconds per 600,000 seconds, roughly. Not a big saving. I can see that if I reboot every hour of the day, I may change my mind about this.

Who shuts off their 3ds nowadays, when there's sleep mode? The extra 10 seconds it takes to boot is definitely not a big deal for me. I only turn off my 3ds once every 2 weeks

since you leave your console all day on, i thought you had one and was wondering if they are easier to use or a gimmick

I did say sleep mode. I don't leave it on. You kinda skipped over that one I see. Sleep mode is different from being left on.
