How to upgrade M4 Mac's Hard Drive?

So I have an Intel MacBook Pro that is pretty old. Looking at getting one of these new M4 Macs. It sounds like the “ram” it uses has a new fancy name, so I assume that’s built into the board. Does anyone know if the M3 hard drive was upgradable? Or does anyone know if the M4 can be from some press release I’ve missed? It just hurts to pay $200 per size choice when I’ve upgraded all my old Macs much cheaper in the past.

I’ll have to investigate that Mac Mini claim. Thanks.

Yeah, cant delete or change my previous comment. I failed with misinformation on YouTube, and doesn't check it before posting.

Im request my pervious post deletion.

You haven't seen the Mac Mini teardown then, memory is a removable chip. Not necessarily a standard format though, but you know someone will create an upgrade....
