Hi guys

I currently have an R4 with a 2gb micro SD card and would like to purchase a 4gb card. The problem is i noticed all the 4gb SD cards are microSDHC and i was told that the R4 does not support microSDHC. My question is are there any 4gb cards that are compatible with the R4 and where can i purchase them.

Also another question in regards to the R4. Does is support a slot 2 expansion?

Cheers

anything above 2gb is microSDHC so you cant find one that will work with an R4. If you want bigger than 2gb the only way is to upgrade from your R4 to M3real or CycloDS. R4 does support it....I think...

Hows that 4 a quick reply

R4 supports slot-2 functionalities, but you need your own adapter for it.

Ok!

Sadly so far R4 does not fully support any 4gb SD cards. But surprisingly the 4gb cards do work. I have used one and also have some friends who use them and they have never had a problem. The word going around is that they are currently classified as "unstable" but as far as I'm concerned there is not a problem with using a 4GB SD card in an R4. However there may be others who have had there R4 crash while playing so it might be good to get a second opinion just in case someone else has found problems.

Hope that helps

I have been told the M3 supports the higher Size Cards but the R4 does not.
