this. i was very close to consider buying a a laptop with a soldered SSD because low weight is a critical feature for me , but then i realized that a similar model with replaceable SSD almost had the same low weight, and so i chose that, and i am glad i did. only a year later i needed to replace the SSD with one twice as large. worse. the old SSD also showed signs of failing for unknown reasons. warranty would probably have covered it, but getting that would have been a hassle and without a working laptop until it was fixed, and i needed more space anyways. i'd rather have warranty on individual components that are expensive (like the motherboard) and spend some money to replace smaller parts than waiting for a fix.
