Homebrew A ton of corrected pages when backing up my nand

[OrangeBoi]

hello, i have just hacked my Wii with the letterbomb exploit and installed bootmii. i believe this wii is very close to or is a launch model. while backing up my nand, a ton of bad block icons appeared, but the verification made them all green. the status on the bottom listed a ton of corrected pages and a few factory bad blocks. is this ok or should i be worried?

Bad blocks are normally encountered, no need to worry.

Bad blocks are normally encountered, no need to worry.

If the bad block is marked as a "Factory bad block" then everything's all right. If you get bad blocks that weren't marked as bad in the factory, then that means that particular block has worn out from overuse, and the onboard NAND may well be close to it's end of life.

Honestly, I'm not 100% certain what the corrected pages could mean for your system's NAND. It's probably not worth tearing your hair out over, though.

So, if it came back all green, would my NAND have a lot of life to it yet? Or is that not really a good indicator?
