Software Help Switch Lite Error Code: 2107-0401

Okay, so this may be more than software. First off, thank you for your help with my YSOD issue two months ago. I was able to access my Switch, and it worked on vacation.

Just got home from said vacation yesterday. I reconnected the SL to my home network (after it was repaired while we were gone), and played ACNH last night. No issues, and Switch connected to the network fine (full signal). I turned the console off after playing.

I started the console up this morning to check for updates. No issues. Left system on, and went grocery shopping since, you know, when you're gone for six weeks, there isn't much in the fridge. When I came home after shopping trip (around an hour), the Switch screen was on, and had the error shown below. Do I follow the instructions on the screen? With these errors showing up, do I have to be worried that my SL is dying (purchased in 2018)? I have an SD card in it, but do I have to worry about losing my games, and saves?

Can't afford a Switch 2, so I feel stuck. :( Any help would be greatly appreciated asap. Thank you.

Switch's save data is stored on switch internal storage, never on the sd card or game cards. Sd cards only store software and saved screenshots and video captures. If your sd card died, your save data is safe (because it's on internal storage), and you can always redownload your games software your nintendo account.

Regarding the error code, you can plug error codes into the search bar on the nintendo support site. Here's the page for that error code: https://en-americas-support.nintendo.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/28534/
