   >when the ssd dies can you pop in a thumb drive and boot off that?
   
   >Before these models yes. After, no. It won't POST now. The NAND functioning is necessary to the device being usable at all with modern macbooks. You cannot boot off a Debian live USB like you could back in the A1706 days.
   
   >An A1706 can still boot off a SATA SSD using USBC to SATA adapter, into Mac OS, or Debian, etc. This model can't. T2 firmware is on the NAND, the wear part they soldered to the motherboard.
