Upgrade paths

RAM

Soldered, 8 or 16 GB fixed at purchase · LPDDR3 soldered to the logic board. Configure 16 GB at purchase if you want it.

LOCKED

storage

2 TB M.2 NVMe via Sintech-style adapter · Proprietary removable PCIe blade slot. A ~$25 adapter takes a standard M.2 NVMe SSD; needs the Boot ROM from macOS 10.13+ first. Common community path, but a delicate teardown.

~$25 adapter + drive

HARD

battery

74.9 Wh replacement pack (A1582) · Glued to the top case, solvent or top-case swap job.
