I see a number of you YouTubers making videos on how to install HBL, but I've yet to notice one mentioning backing up the NAND. I see links in the descriptions to GBAtemp, from time to time, too. Sounds like an important step to leave out.
Hacking Suggestion So many YouTube install videos without mentioning NAND backup

I a lot of those tutorials seem to be made by people for quick views without the knowledge they should have when making such videos.
Well, making a backup is common sense/knowledge for most people, so it's not really that absurd to not include that information.
Either way, Hekate can do you nand backup, as well as linux.

You can use hekate to back up your NAND. When you've got onto hekate, there's a tools option I believe. From there, you have to click dump Raw NAND and that should do so onto your SD Card.
Just format your sdcars to fat32 so you can use it for the mean time.

It's because it's unneeded. There's almost no way to softbrick your Switch.
I mean, it would be "nice" if youtubers made a comment about NAND backups before their tutorials but at the end of the day is not their responsability. We are the ones that are modding our consoles and should know what that comes with.
If you need to be reminded about making a backup everytime, then you probably shouldnt do anything to your console.

Tell that to the purple screen guy
Some guy bricked his switch (sidenote: it matched his keyboard at least
) and it gave him a purple screen. He didn't backup. Here's the thread:https://gbatemp.net/threads/permanent-violet-screen-on-switch.503909/

Yea but to play the next gen games, you must have those games on internal, or buy the official ssd expansion cards, which are expensive -

A surge protector is a device that protects your electronics from fluctuations. I recommend having your console plugged into one of those -

An UPS is even better because it has an internal battery that keeps your system on even if the power goes out, but it's much more expensive obviously

On the series s/x you can use a external HD but any next gen games must be on your internal ssd, or you can buy a ssd expansion card, but pricey. Any xbone, 360, or og Xbox games can be played from external tho.
