I don’t think anything is stopping you buying a second hand / 3rd party module online. It just needs to be physically compatible with your particular generation

I don’t think anything is stopping you buying a second hand / 3rd party module online. It just needs to be physically compatible with your particular generation of hardware.
- Izikiel43 2y agoWell, someone has to build the 3rd party module
- staticfish 2y agoI don't think this is true. If you watch the videos, dosdude1 specifically says he had to order blank NANDs for this process. Then you DFU restore the system from another mac. I have no proof, but I assume part of this DFU restore process is the new NAND chips being hardware paired in some way. Again I have no proof, but there must be reasons he claims they have to be blank NANDs
- GeekyBear 2y ago> there must be reasons he claims they have to be blank NANDs If you are building new SSDs, it makes sense to be certain that used NAND chips aren't slipping into your supply chain. They do have a limited number of write cycles that they are good for, after all.
- staticfish 2y agoWatch the video again. He emphatically says they have to be blank or it won't work
