Just something I have noticed. This is the third time I am doing Plailect's famous Guide.

During Part 3 (RedNAND) Section 8. Select "Complete RedNAND setup"

It created an EmuNAND that was 1240MB in size. I know for a fact that this particular N3DS has a 1.8GB SysNAND.

I never noticed this before with my previous two other N3DS's. Shouldn't it create and clone an EmuNAND the same size as the SysNAND?

minsize dump is a new feature of Decrypt9.
You shouldn't worry about it. 1240MB is all you need from the NAND dump. Everything else is just 00 bytes.
For old 3DS it's 943MB.

Ok, cool. Just wondering why it created a smaller EmuNand. Thanks for clearing it up.

I can confirm this. It's in the FAQ;

Q: What is the difference between RedNAND and EmuNAND?
A: RedNAND and EmuNAND are both different types of NAND redirection with small differences in the way they are handled behind the scenes. The main advantage to using RedNAND instead of EmuNAND is that RedNAND will always use the smallest NAND size the device offers, regardless of the size of the SysNAND chip. For example, a New 3DS user with a 1.8GB internal NAND chip will only have to use 1.2GB for all RedNAND backups.
