yeah, smb 1.0 will allow you to ftp with micro sd card management. it's under features in windows 10. it's enabled by default in windows 7. smb 1.0 also controls mapping network drives with the ps3 and the 360, but you can map network folders instead with 2.0, which is about the same thing.
I could never get it to work, i'm on Win10, i messed with it for a while and since the ftp speed is comparable between the two, i just stuck with ftpd.

if you enabled it, not sure why it didn't work.

To be clear, SMB and FTP are totally separate protocols. ;)

If you want to use SMB with your 3DS, not only do you need to enable it in the list of Windows features, but you need to enable Client for Microsoft Networks under the IPv4 settings of your network adapter, which is something of a security risk. If you want, you can toggle it over CLI using NVSPBind from Microsoft TechNet. You need the GUID of your network adapter to do this, which you can find in the registry under:

Code:
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkCards\Card#\ServiceName

The GUID is a long hex string enclosed in braces { }, which you'll need to use. I wrote a simple batch file to handle it:

Code:
@ echo off
goto :start
rem {hex string goes here} (LAN GUID)
rem "Local Area Connection" (LAN "friendly" name)
:start
C:\bin64\NVSPBind\nvspbind.exe -e {hex string goes here} ms_msclient
echo.
echo "Client for Microsoft Networks" enabled on "Local Area Connection".
echo Press any key to disable it again...
pause >nul
C:\bin64\NVSPBind\nvspbind.exe -d {hex string goes here} ms_msclient
echo.
echo "Client for Microsoft Networks" disabled on "Local Area Connection".
echo Press any key to close this window...
pause >nul

Running the script will enable SMB on your network card and then wait for you to press another key. Once you finish copying files, press Enter, and the script will disable SMB again.

Instead of mucking with Windows settings and enabling SMB at a system level, it is probably much better to use muCommander instead, which should have the same capabilities. There are reports that it works.

That seems like it could be a handy program. Do you happen to know if it can act as a SMB/NFS server, or is it only a client?

I made that script many years ago when I was using SMB to move/stream files between my PC and DVR. I've never tried it with a 3DS, but since SMB is SMB, it ought to work. I've found FTP to be a more practical option, so I don't deal much with SMB anymore.

    the vram is one advantage when it comes to AI but ends up being slower even with that and really AI is the only use case that needs more than 12gb vram right now
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Interesting lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think I watched a video where two games at 4K where eating just over 16GB of RAM and it's the one case where the 7900XT and XTX pulled ahead (minus RTX of course)
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    So my opinion is that they could age a bit better in the future, and maybe AMD will continue improving them via drivers like they tend to do. No guarantee there but they have done it in the past. Just a feeling I have.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    cyberpunk at 4k without DLSS/fidelityfx *might* exceed 12gb
    +1
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but that game barely runs at native 4k
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I think it was some newer games and probably poorly optimized PS4 or PS5 ports
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    they definitely will age better but i feel dlss might outweigh that since it looks about as good as native resolution and much less demanding

  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    When I played Cyberpunk on my old 2080 Ti it sucked lol
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    AMD could introduce something comparable to DLSS but nvidia's got a lot more experience with that
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    least amd 7xxx has tensor cores which the previous generations didn't so there is the potential for AI upscaling
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They have FSR or whatever it's called and yeah it's still not great
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so AMD seem to finally be starting to take AI seriously
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Oh yeah those new 8000 CPUs have AI cores built in that's interesting
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Maybe they plan on offloading to the CPU?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Would be kinda cool to have the CPU and GPU working in random more
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Tandem even
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    i think i heard of that, it's a good idea, shouldn't need a dedicated GPU just to run a LLM or video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    even the nvidia shield tv has AI video upscaling
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    LLMs can be run on cpu anyway but it's quite slow
  • BakerMan @ BakerMan:
    Have you ever been beaten by a wet spaghetti noodle by your girlfriend because she has a twin sister, and you got confused and fucked her dad?
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    I had a girlfriend who had a twin sister and they would mess with me constantly.... Until one chipped a tooth then finally I could tell them apart.... Lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    They would have the same hair style the same clothes everything... Really messed with my head lol
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    @The Real Jdbye, I could see AMD trying to pull off the CPU GPU tandem thing, would be a way to maybe close the gap a bit with Nvidia. Plus it would kinda put Nvidia at a future disadvantage since Nvidia can't make X86/64 CPUs? Intel and AMD licensing issues... I wonder how much that has held back innovation.
