Apple Mac mini M6 or M5 Pro generation, unlike the M4, can't have its SSD swapped

[Redaktion]

The M4 Mac mini gave owners a cheaper way to upgrade their internal storage after purchase. Apple has now removed that option from the new M6 and M5 Pro models, leaving buyers with expensive factory upgrades or external drives. The new Mac Studio, however, still holds on to its removable storage modules.

not a surprise and another spit in the face of the buyers,
who dont have enough struggle with the insane nand prices,
but apple topping it with even more ludacris prices than before for ssd upgrades.

It's to be expected of Apple, cannot allow consumers to bypass their overpriced storage prices - it's not like  they haven't already made a killing over the years every time anyone bumped RAM or storage.
