CIA files install at the same rate with a fast or slow SD card.

lol, no.

That's wrong. I've tested with a class 10 and a class 4 on my 3ds.

Yeah ive read lots of issues with people using slow cards in their sky3ds. Theres a really good thread stickied over at that website that distributes 3ds ISOs titled How to buy a SD or Micro SD Card for .CIA and .3DS

KEY POINTS:

This is the most important part. Since you have to install .CIA files on your SD Card, the Card's Class will make a GREAT difference.
It's recommended to buy Class 10 cards if you don't wanna wait about 2hours to install a 4gb .CIA!
Recommended size for SD cards if you wanna instal .CIA, is 32GB or bigger.

KEY POINTS:
Why?.CIA(game installer) is stored on your SD Card, and you have to install the .CIA on your SD Card!
For example if the game is 4GB, will need 8GB to install the game! (You can delete the .CIA after you installed the game)

ExtraHas a new technology for High-end devices called UHS-1,2&3,these cards are FREAKING expensive!
Do not buy for your Nintendo 3DS! It's reading & writting speed is FAR superior from Class 10 non-UHS cards.
But it's for high-end devices (for professional use like for example, photographers) And 3DS doesn't support UHS techonology.
To put it simple, is a waste of money.

Just thought I would point out before everyone rushes out and buys one, you cannot use above 32GB SD-Card in the side of your 3DS. I'm not quite sure but the SDXC models wont even work.

Ya you can, just format to FAT32. I ordered my 64gb mSD a few days ago

Your talking about Micro-sd cards for the NN3DS I'm talking about SD-cards for the side of your 3DS.

I use a 64gb micro sd in an adapter formated to FAT32 in my 3ds xl while I wait for the n3ds xl update from gateway. No problems.

nope

Did they fix the 2ds problems? I just noticed they updated their website to say "Works on 2DS, 3DS & 3DS XL (Firmware 4.1-9.2)". I thought it wasn't working on 2ds' with all the people still complaining on here. Maybe another update is about to be released?

Sorry I was told along while back a 64GB and above would not work on an original 3DS/XL, someone bought one a while back when GW v3.0 didn't come out for .cia files and it would not work so he had to send it back and replace it with 2x32GB's. Are you sure?

lol it's in my system right now.

only certain people are having 2ds issues. I know 3 people with no issues on the 2ds.

The 2DS came out after 4.5.0-10U so it can't go to 4.5 if you are expecting to get there.

actually tbh your first comment does not make sense at all? What do you mean:-

I have a 64gb micro sd card. I am using it with my US 3ds xl in a micro sd to sd adapter while I wait for Gateway to release the N3DS XL update. What doesn't make sense?

It's working, except for a few bugs here and there. nothing to be concerned over. mostly inconsistency of launching the exploit. Sometimes it crashes while trying to launch it...

He is using his og 3ds while waiting for the n3ds release. He has 2 3ds consoles. one new 3ds and one old3dsXL... not so hard to understand lol

And ye, you just have to format to fat32. Windows doesn't do it natively, you need a third party sd formatter that will do it.
