I have an o3ds with a9lh + luma3ds + latest version. I have a 32gb microsd with all the files and cias and saves I have. Now, I'm running out of space and I want to transfer everything to a new sd card. I understand that I only need to copy all the files to the new one to keep my a9lh and luma3ds but I'm wondering how I'll get my cias and saves back. Do I have to reinstall my cias and restart my game or what? Thanks in advance

Th saves and cias are stored in the Nintendo 3DS Folder. As long as you have that you're fine

Just be sure to format the new card using Panasonic SD Formatter.

And if you're getting a huge one, it'll be SDXC, which will need to be changed to SDHC. For that, use this: http://www.ridgecrop.demon.co.uk/download/fat32format.zip

One other suggestion is to use Teracopy to copy everything over to the new SD. You can get it to double check everything to make sure there were no copy errors.

    Or, I also heard that if you use flash memory, it can act as more "RAM" at least windows tell me when I stick a flash drive into it.
