In reality, it is possible to upgrade these disks after purchase, but the process is complex as it requires sophisticated equipment and some expertise. Quentin, the founder of the French service Save My Mac
, has decided to breathe new life into many Macs still in use.
How to Replace Your Mac’s Internal SSD?
To swap the SSD, you need to replace the NAND memory chip with a model identical to Apple’s – this is crucial for the drive to be recognized natively and safely by the Mac.
This procedure works with all Macs equipped with Apple Silicon M1, M2, M3, or M4 processors (see below). You can upgrade to 500GB, 1TB, or 2TB. Pro models can be expanded to 4TB or even 8TB!
The process involves removing the NAND chips from your original SSD and soldering in higher capacity chips. Depending on the model, you may need to populate
empty slots on the motherboard to make them communicative. That’s why the technique requires advanced equipment and cannot be done at home.
The company guarantees the service for the lifetime of the device, so customers don’t need to worry about it (includes handling return service if needed).
