@tomchai - Correct! the RAM & storage is soldered.
How are they changed or replaced by Techs at Mac Service-Shops? When being used to soldering IC’s on multi-layered MoBo’s with an anti-static, isolated temp-controlled Weller or such soldering Irons, is it possible at all?
@pingumann This is how you do it. https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1CV411W...
Simply put its brain surgery!
Without the proper tools, training and skills you are not going to be successful and you also need to have access to the proper chips.
Ya, not particularly in the mood to solder on new HW yet. Waiting for a while to do memory and SSD upgrade in 2 - 3 years, when they will be much cheaper, or search for broken units that can then be revived with newly soldered Memory and SDD. :-/
