    I need a 4gb micro sd card for my m3 simply. Will sandisk be okay? I looked it up and kingston doesn't make 4gb micro sd's. So will a 4gb sandiks micro sd work. Or can you tell me where a list of compatible sd cards. The official one on the m3 home site only has 2 gb ones.


    I need a lot of storage for my movies and songs.

    I am guessing, but I think the 4gb microsd card will work with the R4/M3S so long as it isnt SDHC. R4/M3S dont support SDHC cards.

    My recommendation is to get two 2gb cards and swap them, that way if one breaks you still have 2gb card. if a 4gb card breaks (stops working), you lose 4gb in one shot.

    Then where am I supposed to put the other micro sd card to switch around. I usuall only have my ds I don't want to bring anything with me to hold the micro sd card. It aloost fits in the gba ds lite slot when you put in the gba slot cover.

    You are not going to find a 4 gig non SDHC anywhere easily. They also go for about the coast of 3 2 gig micro sd chips.

    I put the Micro SD into the SD adaptor and keep the SD adaptor in my R4 case, you can fit about 2 or 3 in there with no problem. My laptop has a SD port on it.

    I'd becareful not to crush or crack the card in the GBA slot. They do have a GBA advance chip that reads a Micro SD card that fits into a DS lite slot. You could load all your music on the GBA card and the games on your M3?

    i think a 4gb is cool if ur using it for multimedia also, not just games. but yea personally id rather have a 4gb than 2 2gb because its just more convienient no matter how small the micro sd is. try mobymemory.com. they sell 4gb memory. i think its euro though, so make sure u convert it to check the US price
