Apple showcases Mac Studio and Studio Display at Peek Performance virtual event. During the keynote, the company mentioned that the new Mac Studio features a modular design. This statement gives the user the impression that the computer can be easily upgraded. But - surprise, surprise! — Teardown reveals Mac Studio isn't easily repairable, and storage upgrades aren't currently technically feasible. This doesn't shock us at all, as Apple is known for making upgrading as difficult as possible for its users.
Mac Studio
The Mac Studio teardown shows how users have to peel off the anklets to even just unscrew the computer. After removing the bottom cover, you'll find the power supply wrapped in black tape. Once unscrewed, you'll finally have access to some of the modular parts included with this powerplant.
#Although the SSD is technically user-accessible, replacing or Upgrading it is not a simple process at all. As highlighted in iFixit's Mac Studio teardown, Apple blocks SSD upgrades. If the user switches storage modules, the system will fail to boot because it is not paired with the system configurator. The pairing tool will likely remain exclusive to authorized repair centers — unless Apple decides to lift this restriction in a future software update. So, if you're buying a Mac Studio, make sure you get a variant with enough storage to suit your needs.
iFixit’s Mac Studio teardown also revealed that these ports are indeed modules ized and accessible—relatively speaking. As expected, the cooling system takes up a lot of space, as the M1 Max and M1 Ultra chips heat up under intensive use. It consists of two fans, based on aluminum or copper – depending on which M1 chip variant you choose.
