Hacking Accidentally didnt allocate memory for emunand

[Halvorsen]

Emunand is just a big group of files that makes stuff pop up on the screen. It still uses the 3DS's built in hardware to process everything. Making emunand a bigger partition or "allocating more memory towards emunand" does nothing but increase the space you have for DSiWare games. Emunand isn't a program on your
SD card. A NAND is a physical hardware chip where firmware files and stuff are stored. Your SD card actually emulates the physical chip and the files in it. The SD basically acts like it is two seperate pieces of hardware, one of them being a NAND chip. It does this by making a second, untouchable, partition in your SD Card that you can't see.

If it's extremely slow, your SD is probably fake or <Class 4. Emunand of course will natually be noticeably slower than sysnand as the console is using more parts to achieve the same function rather than one part. The speed of the system's nand chip is considerably faster anyway.
But remember this is the 3DS.

Then you have a fake or corrupt card nuke it after backing up your saves and start over.

Nuke it?

Nuke it?

...start over from scratch

You don't allocate memory for emunand. That is not how it works.
For you to have emunand you must have created a 2GB partition at some time, that implies at some given time you formatted the SD card, created that partition and wrote a (at the time bonafide) copy of your sysnand in that partition.
There is just no other way to it. You CAN'T have emunand if you didn't do this (that is done automatically by gateway emunand format and other tools).
If you have emunand and it runs slow it IS NOT fault of "not allocating memory", because you just CAN'T allocate memory to it.
Again, if it runs slow, probably you have a class -1 sd card, go look for something faster.

So you have ~4GB of free space.
Also worth saying. When I boot with AC plugged in and install something with FBI, the 3DS become very slow until I reboot. I don't know if it's a bug.
Maybe that's what the author is complaining about.

I AM SO SORRY I WAS TALKING ABOUT THE GATEWAY SD CARD, NOT THE N3DS SD CARD, MY APOLOGIES!

My n3ds sd card is a 8gb kingston.

EDIT: Btw linksorazelda, i love your profile pic.

That's makes this conversation worse...emunand is located in the 3ds sd card

This thread is confusing as fuck.
The OP should get his shit together, I hope somebody can make sense of all this.

I have. He haves a 8 gb SD card that Ruma emunand slowly. He can only buy a Faster SD.

OP, what class is your sd card for in your n3ds? There's a number from 1 to 10 in a circle next to the amount of GB's. Please tell us

I think your confused as hell.

You cant and dont need to add more space for the emunand.
Its an image file on your sd card.
The rest of the sd card is use for storing games, pic, etc..

If your 3ds is running slow only when in emunand then its possible your card could be crap.
The class could be to low or a fake cared.
