“People” = literally one guy who has the tools and skills to disassemble an SSD board. Sure, it does leave the door open to third parties doing this as a service. Kinda jumping the gun on this though.
From the article this has lead a group to reverse engineer the proprietary board and start a Kickstarter to make it more accessible, which is pretty exciting (hopefully Apple doesn’t find a way to kill it)
Looking forward to a Mac mini version.
Are you stunned, shocked, or blasted?
I don’t know what this is supposed to mean. I’m making a correction to the claim that more than one person is doing this and saying it’s possible other companies could start manufacturing these parts.
Many articles make headlines of the experience of one or few people and make it seem live a pervasive trend or situation.
I’m making a joke that many articles use ridiculous adjectives like stunned, when the subject of the headline is certainly not.
It’s a joke about silly modern journalism, not you
Pft. Ain’t that the truth. Gotcha journalism has been around for over a hundred years and we still suck it up.
I’m stunned that they slammed Apple like this.
Lol I love that someone downvoted us. We are joking about the same exact symptom the top comment is referring to: ridiculous article premises and silly titles.
Meh, I don’t care how the votes turn out. I don’t post for upvotes.
Sorry, guys - I had to. 😁
I own Apple stock and an M4 Mini. Happy to see upgrade options.
Apple is literally like that landlord who’s stingy about turning the heating on… but with storage
They know people will massively overpay for storage. Their entire company history has been severely overcharging for memory and storage space.
It’s why I bought Apple stocks long before I bought any Apple products. I had faith in Apple consumers.
And memory.
Yes, that too!
Good! Much as I begrudge apple as a company, I’m glad users are still finding ways to upgrade and maintain the tech they use
This was a great article and the linked video was even better.
