was there not an additional 256gb drive in there

#

it would be a 2.5in lower profile card

#

yep

#

it could just be formatting

#

its that mac and windows is formatted differently

#

so values mean different thing

#

but im not entirely sure

#

i think it best to to disassemble the entire thing

#

if you have no intent to reuse it that is

#

there would not be any additional flash storage on the hard drive, its only mechanical disks that are on drives

#

there are hybrid drives out there but this isnt one of them

#

idk why someone would operate an OS on emmc flash

#

there would be something sticking out if there was an SD card installed

#

it would be "invisible" but you should be able to feel if something is occupying the space

#

no need to use a paperclip

#

did you not buy it directly from apple or an apple authorized retailer

#

it should work fine

#

if it boots then that means theres another media device connected to it

#

whether thats an sd card or they slipped a 2.5in drive somewhere else
