The 960 pro 2TB costs between 1200 and 1300 EUR (depending on the country and store, or ~1100 GBP in the UK) that's 400-500 EUR difference and it's unlikely that you'll get an NVME drive faster than the 960 Pro, in fact it would not surprise me if it's the 960 pro in it, and if it's not in all honesty it's likely to be inferior.

1700 EUR for an upgrade is ridiculous even if the 960 Pro would cost 1700 EUR which it doesn't even remotely do the upgrade should've been it's price minus the price of the 512GB SSD. Effectively Apple is charging you anywhere between 2100 and 2500 EUR (2100 if you use the 960 pro 512 price, 2500 if you use the "apple price") for that 2TB SSD.

This is by no shape or form acceptable, taxes or anything else be damned.
