Homebrew Can I use my SD card for R4i SDHC Dual Core 2016 flashcard instead of a Microsd?

Hi,
I'm planning on buying this flashcard: http://www.r4depot.com/11-r4i-sdhc-dual-core-flashcart-for-2ds-3ds-xl-3ds-dsi-ds-lite.html

I have an SD card with CFW files in it. My old 3ds has rxtools emunand and sysnand. I read somewhere that you need a microSD card to load ds games and to place saves there.

Thing is, I don't have a microSD card, and I don't want to have to spend more money to get one. So I was wondering if i can use my SD card to load ds roms with the flashcard and place saves there instead. Just wanted to clarify.

No, you can't exactly do that although you would only need like a 4GB max card. DS roms are really small in size.

ah okay. well guess i'll have to buy one then.thanks^^

you know that a micro sd card is much smaller than a SD card right?
you could use an adapter but it is unpractical, you would get a wire\platic thing sticking out of the thing, and it's not really worth it...
you can get a 8 gb or even 16gb micro sd card for 5 bucks or less

you can't... the SD is physically larger than the MicroSD...
