       @dansup personally? Storage upgrade. I got an M3 Pro last year and am hoping to get a decade out of it like my last machine…

       @dansup I have an M1 and don’t use the SD card reader much, so I ‘upgraded’ its storage with a BaseQI NinjaDrive SD card adapter and a high-quality 1TB SD card.While it’s not as fast as an SSD, it’s a great alternative for temporary data storage, reducing the need for external drives or USB sticks.https://store.baseqi.com/products/baseqi-420a-microsd-adapter-for-macbook-pro-2021-2022-2023

       @dansup with docker yeah super easy to be honest.but true you would end up burning the sd card.still a cheap thing to test locallywhen i had my macbook air 2017 i did that and was ok ish

       @dansup I would consider it a "worse case scenario" maybe. but youre right.still worth the test, you could move android studio and heavy stuff to the sd

       @dansup I'd say, update now, m4 was a worthy upgrade over the m3 and I doubt apple would give 2 big upgrades in a row. Plus, it would take at least 6 months until m5 is out.

       @dansup If the storage problem is really going to drive you bonkers, then I think you’ve already made the decision. 🤣There are some tax advantages (we’re both in 🇨🇦) to buying a computer in the last days of the year, so that’s worth considering. Don’t forget to check the Apple refurb store- same warranty, less expensive.I lease my machines, which is also handy, by making hardware upgrades regular.
