I have a bit of an odd question. I've used this tutorial to successfully upgrade 2 NAND's on 2 hackable switches to 256gb

My question now is, can I use a hackable switch as a "nand reader" to create a backup from and then upgrade the Nand's of non-hackable switches?

From what I understand, it's just copying everything off the old nand, pasting it on the new NAND, and then expanding the one partition. The tools to run this I think run before the switch os does, so even if the NAND from the unhackable switch can't be read by the hackable switch normally, the tools shouldn't care right? Has anyone tried this?
