Implications of Soldered SSDs
Repairability and Upgradability:
Users cannot easily upgrade their storage capacity after purchase
If the SSD fails, the entire logic board may need replacement, which is significantly more expensive than replacing just the storage drive
Data Recovery:
In case of SSD failure, data recovery becomes much more challenging, if not impossible, for the average user
Security Features:
With the introduction of the T2 chip (and later, the M1/M2 chips), the soldered SSDs became integral to the boot process and security features of the Mac
If the NAND (the storage chips) becomes corrupted or fails, the entire machine may not turn on at all.
