By using the PC transfer method, you won't be downloading all 17GB on the new 4GB SD card....

Look at this guide (Because it covers your exact scenario)

OK  thanks. I will see how it goes

The first part of the transfer that you have to do, transfers the liscense from on 3DS to the other. So even if the games do not fit on the SD card you can always download them later since the liscense will be on that 3DS now.
