    It could even be that the battery is there to prevent the loss off unsaved work. Macs are designed to mark data as "written to SSD" even though it is only stored in RAM. This is not a problem with Apple laptops, because of the non-removable battery. But without an additional power supply, the data is gone as soon as the power is gone.

    well... That still makes it *technically* upgradable. Technically, you can add more NAND on a M.2 card and tell the controller to also register it. You could even add a regular off-the-shelf SSD and tell the controller to pass through. That's basically nothing new. Most ARM-SOC devices work that way, because most ARM-SOCs have builtin memory controllers. Technically it's not a bad solution. It's probably just unecessarily locked behind some apple tool so the manufacturer can do this, while the user can't, making the whole thing technically upgradeable, just not user upgradable. It's a feature that is there, so apple can sell different variants without actually having to hardwire them. It's there, so apple can sell an overpriced storage upgrade in the future.

It's a money making scheme by Apple. Because it is only upgradeable by Apple. It's like a Tesla battery capacity is not user upgradeable. It technically is upgradeable though and Tesla will do it for you - for a high price. Or like a iPhone screen with fingerprint reader is replaceable and repairable. It's just the Problem, that Apple designed the fingerprint reader in a way, that only apple can replaceable it, because it's married to the processor. Or like the Mac Mini storage has a hardware encryption, so you can't replace the SSD and you can't read out the data from a broken device. You could say, it's for security, but there are dozens of better solutions that would result in recoverable, encrypted but readable and decryptable data. But these solutions wouldn't prevent you from swapping the SSD or installing another OS on the Mac Mini.

    Yeaaaaah... bad idea. These are just NAND chips on a PCB, the controller is in the SoC. So there is no way to backup that data without special equipment and technical knowledge how to use it. So you stick in 2 and the system then got 2 OS-installations, no way to know what it will do. Maybe it just doesn't start, maybe it ignores the 2nd SSD cuz it's not formatted how it expects it to be formatted or the 2nd slot wasn't unlocked in firmware. Or maybe it just erases the 2nd NAND-PCB and then your other Mac Studio is basically bricked and you will have some expensive fun with Apple support. No way to know. There are 2 NAND-PCB slots. They work together, or the 2nd one wouldn't be there. Apple wouldn't spend the money for something that can't be used. The question is just, can it somehow be used by consumers or did Apple lock that shit? That is something that needs to be figured out by people with actual technical expertise, not some dude who sees a CMOS battery and talks about how it's there so "just so your stuff is saved when it's turned off"🤦‍♂. Either OWC (+ maybe other companies) will announce "SSD"-Upgrades for that thing in the next, hrm, I'd guess 2-4 weeks... or it isn't possible without some hacking.

    However, comparisons between the Studio Max and the Studio ULTRA has ONLY shown big advantages in 3D graphics being 'two of everything', Cores, GPUs, Neuros and video Processors, but until Apple stops throttling the software to create the price steps, and until Apple reveals what is really "coming in the next in the next SHOW and TELL, I'll be sticking with the Base Model only increasing the RAM. Apple's 'Mission Impossible imitation' CEO is more interested in Price fixing for Apple's gain, than Playing Fair with the latest SQUARED-UP PRICING, 100, 200, 400, 800.... Steve Jobs would be turning in his grave. It seems... All the 24/48 cores have mistakes as dead cores during TMC's Core production, and rounded up from the BINS to sell anyway, after killing a small number of odd but working cores to make FINAL multiples of 12. WILL THEY FAIL? Non-BINNED CPUS seem to be the BASE STUDIO models and the ULTRA with the maximum working cores!
