    PCSPECIALIST New Mac Studio M4 Max

    Was going to pre-order a new Mac Studio M4 Max as a birthday present for myself (to arrive today, March 12th)...but I couldn't get a clear answer as to whether the SSD in the 512GB model was 'handicapped' like it was in the M2 Mac (due to increasing the NAND chip sizes, but halving the amount...
