DS Flash Equipment > Supercard SD size limit

#89691 - mrsaturn - Mon Jun 26, 2006 6:32 am

Ok, I have the right forum this time..

Is there any limit on the size of an SD card for the supercard, or the supercard mini? I heard it is limited due to the FAT file system to 2gb, is this correct? Are there any disadvantages to having a 2gb card over a 1gb? I've heard rumors that 2gb cards will be too slow...

But I have my doubts. The card I'm looking at is the OCZ 2gb 133x.

Thanks for any help

The supercard will suppport upto 4g ( currently ). There are no speed differences regarding the size of the device but the current firmware upgrader has issues with cards > 1g.
