    isn’t expensive

    Bullshit. Upgrading from 1 TB of internal storage to 2 TB on a laptop is not a $250 expense. Before the memory crisis, I could have bought a brand new M.2 SSD with the full 2 TB for less than that.

        I did say before the memory crisis. It’s not a bad deal now comparatively with everything else being overpriced, but that doesn’t change the fact that Apple hardware is itself overpriced.

          I wasn’t disagreeing just pointing out that a 2TB NVME went from like $180 to $450 :( (as of yesterday at Microcenter at least was $400 last week)

      Its expensive for you and me, but not for someone who needs apple to handle it for them. That’s the whole point. If you can do it yourself, or know someone who can do it for you for free, then you aren’t the customer Apple is looking for.
