Can I solder on my own RAM for 2014 Mac Mini?

I am very good with soldering and I work on engines, PC's, and RC related stuff almost constantly. I feel that if it's harmful to the MAC I don't want to do it! Thanks for your opinion ~Aedan!🙂

I doubt you can since there are many connections like hundreds on each module and you risk overheating components on the board removing the old ones and risk damaging the new module when soldering the new ones in.

The circuit board is soldered by inserting the components and soldering all at the same time with a process like wave soldering
