On the new MacBook Pros, and probably the MacBooks too, the chips that make up the SSD are soldered onto the logic board. The logic board change swap is required for the customer to keep their data.
- abrowne 8y agoThe SSD is part of the motherboard for MBPs with Touch Bar, both 15- and 13-inch, and MacBooks. The 13-inch without the Touch Bar, internally a very different design, does still have a separate SSD.
- _wmd 8y agoThis is very welcome news to me, and I've seen it nowhere else. Do you have a canonical source for it? How about the RAM?
- jdietrich 8y agoThe SSD is socketed but proprietary, using a non-standard connector and an Apple-designed controller chip. The RAM is soldered. https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Function+Keys+Late+2016+Teardown/72415#s144817 https://www.ifixit.com/Teardown/MacBook+Pro+13-Inch+Function...
- abrowne 8y agoMy canonical source is my eyes, having opened up all three types ;-) But the sibling comment has pictures and is right about the ram.
