The picture shows a 2230-ish drive. I would be somewhat surprised if the 8TB option in the M4 Pro is on that module. The different chips may do storage differently.
- haswell 2y agoIt’s visually similar to a 2230, but does not appear to actually be a 2230 if you look closely at the pins.
- jsheard 2y agoCorrect, it's not a 2230. Standard NVMe drives combine the NAND and controller onto a single module, but Apple Silicon machines have the SSD controller built into the main SOC, and the SSD module is just the raw NAND chips.
- SloopJon 2y agoI searched for Mac Studio SSD upgrades, and I do indeed see modules that look just like the one in the picture. Not cheap.
