YouTube creator DirectorFeng has successfully upgraded a 256GB MacBook Neo to 1TB storage in their latest ASMR-themed video. The complex process involved detaching the logic board and replacing the original NAND chip, which required desoldering and soldering efforts. Following the upgrade, DirectorFeng demonstrated the new storage capability in the System Settings after rebooting the device.
This new video follows DirectorFeng’s previous attempt to enhance the iPhone 17 Pro Max to 2TB, which faced challenges due to NAND compatibility. In a twist, viewers noted that another creator, Yang Changshun, had reportedly completed the same upgrade during a live stream, although that footage is not currently available on YouTube.
Fans of tech modifications and ASMR content may find the latest teardown both informative and engaging. The video showcases DirectorFeng's meticulous approach to hardware upgrades, appealing to those interested in device customization.
