- A: AnswerYou cannot actually upgrade a machine you have to order it with the 64gb. This machine's internal components cannot be upgraded.

Q: Questionwill bestbuy be selling the M1 Max chip wtih 64GB memory and 4TB hard drive?(4 answers)
A: AnswerMost likely not as bestbuy usually tends to keep configurations that sell the most vs those that are higher end/custom orders. You will most likely have to go to apple or a different store.Answered by DarkFever
Q: QuestionCan you add another SSD, or are you stuck with only 1TB?(2 answers)
A: AnswerAt the moment, even the standard setup with “only 1TB” is hard to come by and on backorder! So, though special orders of 2, 3, & 4TB drives are possible, it’ll be a while in coming. Initially, I wanted a 2TB Drive, but when I saw that by adding it, I’d have to wait an extra month(!!!), I went for 1TB! On the plus side, that saved me $400, which I’m putting toward more cloud (which was already becoming a necessity), a few USB-C thumb drives (which I kinda needed to get anyway), and possibly another external drive. And that still leaves me with some of that $400 left! :-)Answered by Anonymous
- A: AnswerMost likely not and you will probably have to go to apple for that.

- A: AnswerThis computer is doing great. I am editing music and 4k video from my go pro. I found that the more memory the better. 32gb definitely better than 8gb or 16gb for multitasking. Not overheating at all. I have not been able to overload a video/music editor yet so I am not sure how far you have to push it to see any slow down. This is the most capable computer I have owned.

You won’t be disappointed
This MacBook is amazingly fast. Editing multiple 4K timeline projects is a breeze in DaVinci Resolve. I came from a 13” M1 MBP and this screen real estate & XDR display hands down gave me a better experience. It’s nice not having to be next to an outlet while completing projects. The battery performs amazingly well while editing and crazy when just utilizing it for normal use. Only gripe I have was how poorly Bestbuy packaged this. There was one 8 part air pack in a box way to large. There were indication of it being dropped which am lucky Apple does a great job boxing it’s products.

.NET Engineer who uses this as my main machine
I am a software engineer who uses this as my daily machine now. Our shop is mostly .NET so I run Windows 11 ARM and do all of my work in Visual Studio. I have run into very Few compatibility issues (other than having to run a really old version of SQL Express). Aside from that being able to use my air pods for meetings, answering calls and texts directly from my Mac has been fantastic. It’s super fast even with a VM chewing up resources. I don’t recall my fan ever coming on either. I also have an M2 MacBook Air and will say that’s a great machine as well.

Legit Monster and Real Pro tools!
Waited for long time for it. Waited for the mini-led, waited for the high-performance ARM chip especially for graphics. And all of these came true this year. Though didn't expect the unwanted notch. The performance is really good! No more media optimization is needed to smoothly playback the 4k video or even 8K video during editing in Davinci Resolve or FCPX. Also tested on playing dota2, amazingly, with the highest picture quality, it steadily run on 60FPS and the fans are barely running!! As for appearance! Tool should be the tool! I do like the screen, and no word is needed here for the amazing XDR screen! Pro: - Very high performance that could compare with rtx 3080 while maintaining a very low power consumption. - Good battery life speaking to the given performance. - Very good screen with mini-led tech. - Very good sound quality. - Good webcam quality, but give a notch. Cons: - The apperance just got a little bit ugly than previous gen, but it's definitely ok - The notch!! (Would be hidden during full screen mode) - The M1 Max would be threshold after a while heavy duty. And overall M1 Max is only 40~60% more performance than M1 Pro, which is a little bit less than expected. - HDMI is only 2.0 Overall, if with budget, m1 pro 16 ram is highly recommended, but if you have the extra budget, go for m1 max, and you won't regret it.
