I happily remember the good old days between 2006 (when I bought my first MacBook (in white polycarbonate)) until the introduction of the Retina Macbook Pro in 2012 when accessing the memory and harddrive was hassle-free. I miss those days. Being able to change/upgrade those parts (i.e. adding memory and swapping the harddisk for an SSD) kept my 13” MacBook Pro from 2009 running until 2023, and although it was mostly used for watching Netflix on by my children for the last couple of years, it still managed to provide some kind of value. It’s nice to see that it is (in some sense) possbile to upgrade the storage on the new MacBook Pros, but this is beyond anything that I will venture into - unfortunately. Thanks for the video.

I understand that part where you are increasing the memory from 512GB to 4TB, but there is a big difference noticeable in speed or reading/writing before and after the memory upgrade. Were you using FASTER memory than the original one that comes from Apple ?
@Erik.LundbergАй бұрын
@@MrZdrojek If you buy a MacBook Pro with 4 TB storage directly from Apple it will also perform better compared to 512 GB.
@fVNzOАй бұрын
Higher capacity chips are just usually faster either due to the topology of the memory controller/cache or other variables. It's not really about the speed of the NAND chips themselves i don't think. I mean it could be, but it's usually a limitation somewhere else.
@lasarith2Ай бұрын
Maxtech has repeatedly shown that Apple Macs are faster the more SSD they have , because it writes to all of them so you can get I believe 7 GB/S the same as in this video.

Sounds like an iPhone flash upgrade. On the iPhone models with stacked PCBs and a lot of underfill on the flash chip the safest way to remove the old memory without risking damage to the PCB is to use a milling machine to mill the old chip away. Because you are basically milling silicon you need a very high spindle speed - and it sounds a lot like that.
