> SSD drive that is soldered to the motherboard of your MacBook Air/High-End Notebook/Chromebook Nitpick of something I hear a lot: No SSD is soldered on in a MacBook Air or any Chromebook I've seen[1].

The PCs I've seen are similar, but I don't have as much experience there. I assume the confusion started because the RAM is soldered.
