Are those ram chips on a CPU carrier in a POP configuration? or are they fanned out on the PCB allowing technician to replace individual components?
Part of the reason for Apple move to ram on SOC carrier was killing third party market. Now its impossible to repair/upgrade ram. Similar with T1/T2 proprietary pcie NAND in raid configuration.
- wtallis 3y agoExactly which consumer electronics manufacturers do you think are doing enough BGA reflow repairs to make it a factor in their product design?
- rasz 3y agoNot manufacturers, third parties are able to repair normal computers, even with soldered ram. POP ram is soo difficult nobody does that, and Apple NAND is special unobtainable proprietary kind with pcie bus and locked firmware.
