The source cites many photos showing how the base version of the MacBook Air with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of SSD is upgraded to 16GB of RAM and 1TB of SSD. These changes are then displayed in macOS Big Sur.
The RAM and SSD components on Apple Macs with the Apple M1 are soldered, making the procedure extremely difficult. At the same time, there is a high probability of the device failing during the upgrade process. In addition, users will lose their warranty.
