Why Can’t I Upgrade my MacBook Air SSD?
Since 2018, Apple began to solder in the SSDs of all MacBook Air laptops, which makes upgrading the internal storage of these models impossible. Additionally, it is not possible to upgrade the RAM of any MacBook Air since the RAM of all models has been soldered directly on the board to make them thinner and lighter.
At OWC, we strive to make the SSD upgrade process as simple and easy as possible. Our DIY upgrade kits include everything you need to perform the upgrade yourself, including an external enclosure so you can reuse the original factory drive as a storage device. We know how intimidating it can be to upgrade your Mac if you’ve never opened up your Mac before, and our installation videos walk you through the entire process, step-by-step. If you have any questions or run into any issues, our expert customer support team is here to help.
