    My micro SD reader broke, I tried using DSFTP(I use my micro SD with my R4) but it goes WAY too slow for larger files. Also when I copied a walkthrough for my game over, it didn't actually stay on the card it only said it did(corrupted file)

    I WANT to buy a new micro SD reader, and I have the money but no one will take me to the store, are there any alternatives?

    Also I examined the drive itself but nothing seems wrong, and yes I tried it with other computers.

    tl;dr How can I get files on a MicroSD without a flash drive, or how can I repair my seamlessly not broken one?

    Unless you're experienced with electrical engineering you probably won't be able to fix such a device in any easy way.

    Uhh my brother is an electrical engineer. . .
    I can probably get some help from him XP


    Double compressed the files, and it's gonna take about 20 minutes to send it over, guess this is solved :X

  • Do you have a phone with a MicroSD card slot? That way you should be able to connect the phone's USB cable and transfer that way. Don't even try bluetooth, it's slower than Wifi.

  • Also, just an idea, if you have an SD card reader, the card itself should have come with a Micro-SD -> SD adaptor, so you can upscale it.
