I am thinking about getting the 128 GB version of the early 2014 MacBook Air, and then upgrading the storage. It looks like the maximum amount of storage is 512 GB. This comes from the specs page at Apple, but the page is less then clear about this. Can anyone confirm that you can bump the 128 GB MacBook Air to 512 GB?
Apple will sell you a 512GB model, they do not offer an upgrade path from the 128GB model after you buy it. The SSD Apple is using in this model is a custom M.2 PCIe unit which is only available from Apple currently. OWC and others have shown there upgrade products but haven’t started selling them. OWC is even planning on offering a larger size than what Apple offers! So hang tight as some options are coming soon. If on the other hand you are planing on buy a system I would get the larger sized SSD model to start with.
Sure you can upgrade to 512 GB
There are some sites selling used drives for this machine, but they are going to cost you a good amount.
