The Late 2015 models have the processor soldered and cannot be upgraded at all. We do not have a teardown of that machine yet: http://www.everymac.com/systems/apple/im… Standard Hard Drive: 1 TB* Int. HD Interface: Serial ATA (6 Gb/s)/PCIe* Details: *This model is equipped by default with either a 1 TB (7200 RPM) hard drive (MK462LL/A) or a 1 TB “Fusion” Drive, which combines a 24 GB SSD and a 1 TB hard drive (MK472LL/A). It has a Serial ATA (6 Gb/s) connector for a 2.5" hard drive. It also has a second PCIe connector (PCIe 2.0 x4 NVMexpress interface) that accommodates the SSD if the system is configured with a “Fusion Drive” or SSD or that remains unpopulated if configured with only a hard drive. At the time of purchase, Apple offers a 2 TB “Fusion Drive” (which combines a 128 GB SSD and a 2 TB hard drive) for an extra US$200, a 3 TB “Fusion Drive” (which combines a 128 GB SSD and a 3 TB hard drive) for an extra US$300, a 256 GB SSD for an extra US$100, a 512 GB SSD for an extra US$400, or a 1 TB SSD for an extra US$900.
