Today we’re launching the first new module for the Expansion Bay system in Framework Laptop 16: the Dual M.2 Adapter, enabling you to add additional storage drives or other high speed devices.
I haven’t been that excited about the Framework laptops, because despite liking expandability and modularity, the actual modules offered for expansion didn’t really provide functionality that I’d actually wanted to swap in. A larger battery, a trackpad with physical buttons, those are things that I would want to upgrade. I just didn’t need an LED matrix on the side of my keyboard, and the external ports on most laptops were at least reasonable.
But being able to add more M.2 slots is legitimately something that I could use.
How bout some LTT screwdriver bit storage (lttstore.com). But you know what can work às amazing bit storage? This Segway, to our sponsor! Vessie. Vessie footwear works as amazing bit storage if you decide to stack their shoes on top of your desk.
for the Laptop 13 they released a slightly larger battery a while ago. i just guess it’s not too easy to get the best manufacturing and technology deals as such a small company
