old it is around $15k so you might want to skip buying this.īetter buy an 2tb or 4tb m.2 nvme ssd, use it with an external NVME enclosure & boot from it or use it as an external drive.no pint in spendin 1200$ or 3200$ ssd upgrade from appple. It is for sure the fact that your bill will have 3 digits. Now the trickyest part is to find what SSD is compatible with the MacBook. If you don't mind, I'll ask on Monday one of my coworkers if this operation is possible or what you will need to do to make it possible. If you don't care about warranty you might ask a shop like our or maybe like Luis Rossman's (I think the only difference is the fact that we don't deal so much with MacBooks or iMacs like Luis does) to solder for you the SSDs if they can. Now, if you are going to upgrade it you might want to do it in an authorized service. At my job we have access at BGA soldering machine and I can tell that is pretty hard to get our hands on a template for solder balls. I'd say it is creative to think to other devices, as I will dig into later thanks to you (not sarcastic ), but sadly it doesn't work either.Īh, okay my bad there.

The advice is greatly appreciated, but only says what I already know. (edit-end The thread literally says don't do it as it's far from a DIY, so I probably can't do it. Just so that you know, flying or taping external drives on the MacBook Pro 2018 is not an option, since it is all of very hot, easy to break, non-portable, and ugly. Cost is why I'm asking this in the first place so please put where I could get the materials needed and be aware of how much they cost (If it takes a 100$ screw set, it's acceptable, but if it takes a 10000$ hydraulic whatever huge gear that takes up an entire room, no.).

There are three questions, I am not sure whether another MacBook Pro's SSD would work on the 2018 version and that is 2 TB, because it might be available, that I can, or someone else (Perhaps Linus ?) could put the SSD into the socket, so how the old SSD is secured, and how to actually get the SSD and put it in the socket without breaking. I did some research on the internet saying that it is, or may be possible, to upgrade a MacBook Pro 2018's SSD, but the SSD is proprietary (I'm not sure whether I spelled the word right.) so I cannot get the SSD if Apple doesn't sell it to me and that there would be no reason to buy another Apple laptop's SSD just for this one. I want the 2 TB or 4TB storage, but the cost has kept me at bay.
