Nords are designed for you to be able to customize them to your liking without taking a college course in synth programming.
Some of the presets that come with the board are useful/interesting, but it wouldn't be at all unusual for a typical Nord user to chuck 90% of them. Ditto the installed nsmp and piano libraries. THere's way more available than can fit in at one time, but if you think about it it's likely that you can cover the samples you use all the time with room to spare. Even the Mellotron library has stuff you'll likely decide that while interesting, you won't use much.
My first and only Nord is an Electro 5 I purchased a couple years ago. Maybe 10-20% of the piano and nsmps that came preinstalled are still in there. Most of my programs are ones I made from scratch too. Learning how to do that, being able to do it on the fly, and being able to completely customize the nsmp library on my keyboard are to me the greatest strengths of the instrument. Don't be afraid to embrace that, and if you really need the factory stuff, it's always siting there for you on Nord's website.
