Those really low capacity cards have DIRE read speeds though. I wouldn’t want to cheap out too much on them.
We have one SD card at work that seemingly works fine, but has read speeds of like single digit Mbps. It’s plenty for the arcade machine it runs with no more than 10mb roms at the max. But oof is it bad.
I have a 2GB card whose write access latency is over a second. No matter the file size. Reading is a lot better. Either way, since the ROM just gets loaded into RAM upon insertion, it doesn’t matter.
