Is your M-series MacBook running out of space? This repair shop says it can upgrade it to a 2TB SSD, for a price

MacBook Self Service Repair.

Apple's latest M3 MacBook Airs and M3 MacBook Pros might be the best MacBooks ever made, but they all suffer from an issue that has befallen its laptops for years. While they might be fast and quiet, and they have battery life that never seems to end, they all have an issue that Apple seems unwilling to fix — they can't be upgraded.

There was once a time when buying a laptop meant being able to add more RAM and a bigger SSD later in its life, as your needs begin to outgrow its abilities. But that's no longer the case and buyers are stuck with whatever they configured at the time of purchase. Given the costs associated with upgrading both the RAM and storage on Apple's portable Macs, that can be problematic. As a result, people find themselves running out of storage space further down the line with little recourse other than to buy an external hard drive or upgrade to a new Mac altogether. But there might be help at hand, so long as you happen to be in Canada and have reasonably deep pockets.
