2015 Macbook Pro with i7-4870HQ, AMD R9 M370X graphics, 16GB of RAM and a 512GB SSD.
It's my primary machine. I've normally been a "PC" guy but picked up the Macbook because of a visual impairment where most cheap laptop screens hurt my eyesight. It's much better now that I've gotten medical treatment for it, but I don't regret purchasing this laptop anyways.
It's still early days but Chinese companies now manufactor NVMe to Apple SSD adapters. Once that stabilizes I think I'm going to pick up a 2TB SSD and continue using this laptop.
Still plan to build myself a new desktop for home after the whole GPU shenanigans get better.
- peterburkimsher 9y agoIs there any reason you'd rather get the NVMe adaptor instead of the OWC Aura 2TB SSD? https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/S3DAPB4MB20K/ https://eshop.macsales.com/item/OWC/S3DAPB4MB20K/ The OWC one is expensive, but I'd rather get TRIM and avoid risking data loss if an adaptor goes wrong (not sure how likely that is).
