Hi Friends,

My cousin got this MacBook Air and now he is unable to sync the iPhone because of some storage issues (he thinks), however he would like to upgrade the storage now. How do we go about that?

How to find out if it supports a M.2 or Sata one though the site says configurable upto 512 GB. However, I have read in few posts and threads that few machines come up with embedded storage and not possible to upgrade?

Nah.. read this.. https://forums.macrumors.com/threads/upgrading-2013-2014-macbook-pro-ssd-to-m-2-nvme.2034976/

I did my Early 2015 MBA with m.2 NVMe drive.. Works great!.. and a bit cheaper and better than OWC.. Read throughly.. and if he has a TM backup, I think should be able to boot off that drive into recovery and restore from it to new drive.. I had previously made a bootable Catalina USB so I booted off that and restored from TM... I got the 2tb XPG ADATA SX8200 Pro SSD w/small Sintech adapter. Sorry so many edits..
