@TomF @mcc @reedbeta reading those stories makes me believe I‘m haunted by reverse gremlins… I‘m on an iPhone SE (2020) that works fine, and a mid-2015 15“ MBP, which is also okay.
Well, except for the fact that Apple really doesn’t like you running third-party SSDs in macbooks these days, which means any OS update bricks the macbook 🙃.
But with the stock SSD it would just soldier on, I‘m certain.
