Comment on Apple argues in favor of selling Macs with only 8GB of RAM
Retrograde@lemmy.world 5 weeks agoEspecially paired with Apple’s 128gb integrated, non replaceable hard drives. Whoops you installed all of Microsoft office? Looks like you have no room to save any documents :(

ah yes, we can’t forget the proprietary non controller based nvme drives that use m.2 but arent actually nvme drives, they’re just flash.

No way. It isn’t NVME?!?!
KillingTimeItself@lemmy.dbzer0.com 5 weeks ago
it’s NVME in the sense that it’s non volatile flash, probably even higher quality than most existing NVME ssds out there today.
The thing is that it literally just the flash. On a card with an m.2 pin out, that fits into an m.2 slot, it doesn’t have a storage controller or any standardized method of communication, that already exists. It’s literally a proprietary non standard standard form factor SSD.

Yet another reason to never go back to Apple
