Hacking What size microsd?

[pin]

Hi,

waiting on my r4 to come and was just wondering what size sd card to get. Is it worth getting a few 8gb ones or a 32gb in anticpation of multi-rom support?

What are most people using?

using an 8gb samsung class 6 i think. waiting for a 32gb Transcend class 10 multirom!

Whats the lowest speed advisable? Could I get away with a cheap class 4>?

probably, afaik i don't think class speed is that relevant when it comes to gateway/clone cards for the 3ds.

what are the load up times like on your class6?

quick as they need to be tbh. when the 32gb class 10 turns up i will post if there is a difference. I suspect that there really wont be. The only time i noticed a jump in loading times was when i had a dsi and a dstwo card i jumped from a class 2 to 6 and it was noticeably quicker. i started a thread last week i think someone mentioned class relevance, have a look.

I've been using 16GB Class 10 MicroSD and it works like a charm. Once MultiROM is out it should also be able to hold 10-15 trimmed ROMs. I don't really notice any loading time.

The only cards that may have compatibility issues should be the SD cards. Currently, 64GB SD cards are not supported.

you should get one of this size: 15.0×11.0×1.0 mm
and weight: ~0.25 g

cee what i did there?

does having a higher class microsd card(class 4 vs class 10) increase the speed of gameplay, such as tempgba with pokemon fire red or catsfc with super mario allstars

Not at all, tested with class 4 and class 10. Difference is like not even half a second when loading games. Layton, Luigi Mansion and Fire emblem and such.

i read somewhere that higher class cards drawn more battery...

but this can be wrong
