It's crazy that they undertook such a radical redesign effort and then appeared to drop it. I'm typing this reply on one right now. I do love the machine, but the fact that there still isn't an official source for SSD upgrades is baffling. Apple has a helpful page on how to swap the SSD, but won't sell you one at any price. You can get OEM parts that "fell off a truck" on eBay, or you can get expensive OWC parts that lack TRIM support.

It seemed like the video cards would be upgradeable too, but nope. And no Crossfire support in macOS is really sad. Under Windows, these are actually fairly capable gaming machines.

Yeh a radical compact design, that no one asked for in that market space. I'll grant them the iMac crowd, but for everyone else, giving us the ability to easily swap some common components shouldn't have been effectively taken away. I'm not sure how much longer my 2008 MacPro is going to live, and it sucks because I don't have anything to replace it with. Hackintosh might be my ONLY option.
