If it's working fine for you, then I don't really see a reason to switch, but just be careful with using sysNAND.
This just made me realize something. Is there a way to have 2 emunands set up on one micro sd? As in Sysnand + 2 Emunand that can be multi booted via ctr or something. Should be safer than me playing around with sysnand and it will also help me keep one of my emunands "clean"

People used to use separate emunands for gateway and the 4.5 cfw or so i've read here, so probably.

The funny part is, at one point, reinand and cakes were pretty much the same thing, since i used their code to test n3ds emunand, then just rewrote everything to try and be minimalistic, as well as for my own learning experiences.
Anyways, i dont really plan on updating it till 9.6+ emu comes to n3ds anyways.
I guess that's highly unlikely now, correct? Official Ninjhax 2.x support would be nice, though. In Decrypt9, I'm using my modified BrahmaLoader (forked from delebiles Brahma 2) with an (almost, I still need to test) 100% success rate. It also still works on Ninjhax 1.1 without any trouble at all. Personally I would also like an official way of disabling the splash screen & some possibility to skip loading these updated firmware files (so that older exploits still work on EmuNAND). Great work, anyways! I have now tested ReiNAND vs CakeCFW and I think I'll be using ReiNAND for now.

Yup, it is possible (1 GW EmuNAND + X RedNANDs), but it is quite hacky, and none of the official CFWs support it now. I'd rather suggest you use a second SD card for experiments.

Reinand is pretty much perfect as it is anyway. I just hope that we eventually do see a way to update past 9.5 emuNAND.

Interesting. I'll see what I can find

i love Reinand, its stable, and just run that multipatcher to spoof store access.
But i now have RXtools installed, last time i checked you cant directly boot into reinand from themehax, it freezes.
also rxtools is the only way i can decrypt games easily without switching out my mset.

in short if you dont need all that decrypting tools and such then Reinand is the way to go.

Right and wrong and wrong.
Get your facts straight before spouting this shit... seriously.

I was considering adding dual emunand as an original feature, and the emunand parser is flexible enough for that, so wouldnt be too hard to implement. It looks for the nand partition from multiple known locations (GW, rednand, etc) so just make a feature that forces one.
