    It’s replaceable, it’s not upgradable.

    Apple doesn’t use standard NVMe M.2 drives. The controller is built into the SoC rather than being on the storage device itself.

      it never ceases to amaze me the amount of time, energy and money apple spends engineering things to be worse for customers.

        In this case Apple also prioritizes performance.

        It’s more cost effective to integrate the controller.

        Being worse for customers is just a happy accident.

          You and I both know that Apple doesnt do this shit for cost efficiency.

          They do it to make make shit worse for consumers and “unauthorized” repair services.

      I’m aware, but I have upgraded my 256GB to 2TB so not sure what you’re on about. See: https://appleinsider.com/inside/mac-mini/tips/how-to-upgrade-the-ssd-in-your-m4-mac-mini
