Hardware Switch Nand Upgrade

[Adran_Marit]

After seeing a few threads from people who have upgraded their nand I was talking to a friend and was wondering if it would be a viable thing to offer upgrades to people

So I decided to create this poll to see if it would be worth offering a service where you could buy a pre-assembled nand that you could just plug into your switch and flash your backup to + modify the user partition to see the new size

If price is reason probably yes.

If price is reason probably yes.

So it would be emmc cost + pcb ~$10 + soldering ~$30

Keep it in mind that not a lot of people would want a really big NAND due to how long backup and restore take.

I actually also wish for a WiiU nand upgrade.

I was trying to find someone selling them pre assembled earlier today but didn't have any luck

probably a dead thread but could you do a emmc card? i was sent a 64gb instead of a 32gb and restoring doesnt work because of the size doesnt match

I think that would be hekate's verification no?

That's odd, it shouldn't care if there's more space than expected, only less. A number of people have successfully done NAND upgrades to larger chips and then expanded the partition to fit. I think there are guides around that might help you.

please no video guides, they get outdated very quickly
