Best way to handle System Transfer from DSi and 3DS to New 3DS XL?

Basically, I just want to be sure that I don't lose access to a bunch of things on either my old DSi or 3DS during a System Transfer to the New 3DS XL that I just got.

 

So here's my question: if I perform a System Transfer from my old DSi to my New 3DS XL (mainly for a couple of DSiWare titles), after waiting out the required 7 days, if I then attempt another System Transfer - this time from my old 3DS to the New 3DS XL - will the second transfer overwrite everything the first one brought over?

 

Hope someone can help me make sense of this soon - I'd love to have these transfers done before PAX East is over.

 

Oh, also: in the N3DSXL Operations Manual, it says that after transferring from an old 3DS to a New XL, "all data on the source system is erased."

Does that literally mean EVERYTHING, a la a factory reset / system memory formatting? Furthermore, does" all data" also apply to the SD card in the source system, or just its internal memory?
