You are giving those designers more credit than they probably deserve 😂
From what I read it's modular, but not really user-replaceable, I think it's something like this: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2022/03/explaining-the-mac-studios-removable-ssds-and-why-you-cant-just-swap-them-out/
In other words, it's possible to remove one without de-soldering, but still far from being customer-serviceable and you can't easily upgrade/replace it with store-bought parts.
@Nicro
Yeah, probably doable — even ready to use third-party ones might be available from stores that sell Apple-compatible components such as OWC. But I'm not sure that would still qualify as user-serviceable as it further blurs the line of what that is — after all people for whom ordering chips which meet the specs online and soldering them in isn't a problem exist too 😅
@Nicro @kaia
Yep, just as expected: https://www.gsmarena.com/mac_mini_2024_gets_a_teardown_has_no_user_upgradeable_parts-news-65273.php
This can hardly be considered user-serviceable 😩
